Good Mag, Good Stuff, Good Times

by tangledscott (WorldCat user published 2021-08-08) Very Good

I was lucky enough to be published relentlessly in issue after issue of Cokefish in the very early 1990s until Ana Pine, the editor, transitioned to a new journal called Bouillabaisse (before then meeting and marrying the editor of another Beat-oriented magazine called Alpha Beat Soup.

The editor was a transplanted Brit who was very friendly and kind and open to beginners and vets alike, which I always used as my model during my career as a publisher. The mag was SO old school, it wafted right out of the '50s/'60s underground press revolution and proudly so. No perfect bound glossy paged journal, this. Straight mimeo, stapled, colored paper with some card stock, lots of drawings, and largely poems by poets ranging from talented young people just starting out like Tracy Lyn Rottkamp, who would become a good friend to me, all the way to Bukowski and that group, and everyone in between. As I had only been publishing a few years, no doubt I did not yet fit into Bukowski's circle, but that was okay because Ana made it feel like we were a family. Obviously with Buk, Lifshin, Weinman, me and others, and following that '60s Beat-era feel, the material was NOT closed verse nor reminiscent of Donald Hall or Robert Bly. Free verse wouldn't even be accurate, but Ferlinghetti and Ginsberg would have both felt comfortable there and been welcome as well.

I was sad when life changes occurred, but it was probably a good time for me anyway, because I was in the process of moving across the country and starting a new life, looking for work, shelter, a place to write. A reboot, if you will. Somewhere in my dozens of old, unopened boxes of contribute copies, I have dozens of issues of Cokefish and I would love to open those up and go through them again for the first time in decades but sadly the likelihood of that is quite slim, so I guess I can only thank Ana and encourage anyone out there who enjoys such fare to try to seek copies out because they're very special.
