Fantasy poem "Doddering Mage" did not previously appear in a small-press zine or anthology but did appear in my not out-of-print poetry collection Cosmic Journeys and Gothic Visions.
Doddering Mage
Trembling hands
Open arcane tome.
Quivering lips
Speak ancient words.
Faltering voice
Alters complex spell.
Searing bolts
Ignite flowing robes.
Blazing flames
Engulf feeble form.
Swirling draught
Blows drifting ash.
