The frequency of publication is once a quarter. “...The idea that poetry is trying to abolish time by giving the poet immortality (time and death are identical in this way of thinking) is present in Western criticism. In Eastern practice, a poem is often a bottle for preserving a few minutes of a specific experience (even if it can be repeated with a certain frequency), thus time itself is hidden inside poetry from death. In Scandinavian mythology, poetry is indistinguishable from magic; it is capable of disrupting the flow of time, destroying a series of prescribed events...” (Sergei Ivkin)
