As a supplement to this chapter, here’s a zine version of the photo-essay A Poem by Kenneth Rexroth, Painted across the Rooftops of the World (imposed version here). [updated 28/03/23 with additional artwork]
When compressing the online PDF for the previous installment of Return Fire vol.6, we did not notice (as we were printing from an uncompressed version) that the software stripped lots of the graphics out. This has now been corrected; apologies for the delay in rectifying this.
More individual texts featured in Return Fire have been sent to our online archive, and new material added to the respective posters and flyers pages for your autonomous use.
Take care and stay dangerous.
