Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon Publishing Poems for the First Time in Literary Arts Magazine

As he readies the release of the new Bon Iver album, SABLE, fABLE, Justin Vernon is also racking up some literary bona fides. Today, micro-distributed print magazine Little Engines announced that Vernon’s first-ever published poems will appear in its 10th edition. A sneak-peek of the issue partially reveals one of Vernon’s poems titled “Could’ve or Should’ve,” which is printed on pink paper, accompanied by an illustration of a flower pot.
SABLE, fABLE follows Vernon’s SABLE, EP from last year. The new 12-track album is out April 11 via Jagjaguwar. SABLE, fABLE opens with the four songs released on the previous EP: “…,” “Things Behind Things Behind Things,” “S P E Y S I D E,” and “Awards Season.” Vernon enlisted contributions from Danielle Haim, Dijon, and Flock of Dimes on the new project.
Last month, Vernon released another single from SABLE, fABLE called “Everything Is Peaceful Love.” The track arrived with a music video directed by John Wilson of HBO’s How To with John Wilson.
