reliquary

the dog emperor

visits Earth

~David C. Kopaska-Merkel



I Dew


We only eat olives

in the twilight,

just as the kittens

begin

to darn

their socks,

for certainty

is a lousy lover,

little more than

fodder for the plot.

~Kelly Moyer



cone fizzled out

we thought and breathed a sigh

Vesuvius

~David C. Kopaska-Merkel



There are as many explosions as there are stars in the sky

Every night to underground storage and bunkers

An alarm siren sounds

 

Life is wonderful as if it started from an egg and not from a dead chicken

~Mykyta Ryzhykh



anniversary

of your death

stop texting me

~David C. Kopaska-Merkel



removing

last sliver of hope

tweezers

~Roberta Beach Jacobson



the sway of curtains

leaving

claw marks on the moon

~Kelly Moyer



harvested field

strewn with dead sparrows

development

~Bipasha Majumder (De)



so much meaning

packed in the singular question –

why?

~Jennifer Gurney



Religion is a hobby club for those who have never died

~Mykyta Ryzhykh



shells on the beach war

~Roberta Beach Jacobson



open bellies conceal simple truths

~Mykyta Ryzhykh



tropical jungle death of a thousand sucks

~David C. Kopaska-Merkel



unclaimed i tether myself to driftwood

~Kelly Moyer
