Jonathan Bohrn lives in Long Beach, California, which he considers to be the best place on earth.  Maybe it's the music, the people and the seagulls.  Maybe it's because they let him get away with loitering in neighborhood coffee shops and bars hoping to incite poetry readings and getting free drinks.

Since 2002 he is proud to promote the work of talented, emerging poets as editor of the on-line poetry anthology titled a Passage through August.

Jon's work has appeared in Limestone Circle, Memphis Poetry 40-oz, anthologies published by University Memphis Press (Memphis, TN) and in on-line publications including Contemporary American Voices, WordsMyth, Blackmail Press, Empowerment4Women and Poetry Superhighway.  He has enjoyed doing spoken-word venues in the L.A. area and in Memphis, TN, including a few that kindly invited him to be be their Featured Poet. His first well-received chapbook, On the Water's Edge, appeared in 1998.

I ask myself
what you would have done
beneath the disapproving glances
of passers-by...
