Morning of September 25, 2024

 

city bus

every tragedy

taken

~Patrick Sweeney




listen man, no one here cares where the electrons are

~Patrick Sweeney




looking for a place to put yesterday's pink crayon moon

~Patrick Sweeney




China white stars

the mysterious conferences

of crickets

~Patrick Sweeney




jelly shoes, and after all, we're in space

~Patrick Sweeney




his advice was to hang onto whatever nothingness you've got

~Patrick Sweeney




horror

at the manor

only the butler survived

~David C. Kopaska-Merkel




plague of hippos

thank God most of them

only have one head

~David C. Kopaska-Merkel




Seems to be a curse

The call of distant strangers

Never will be meet

~Sarah Mahina Calvello




Sunbloked face

Getting packages

At the door

~Sarah Mahina Calvello




The backbone of the poet has vanished


'Only backbone makes differences..'

Once wrote the poet.


Wheels on the Time

With the injustice committed by the ruthless state

And protests against it most of the fire in rain.


Only the backbone of that poet has vanished.

~Partha Sarkar




missing moon

the parts of me

I fail to resurrect

~Mona Bedi




mid-summer

we add a dash of lemon

to our conversation

~Mona Bedi




 

dirt road

a honey crisp apple

falls off the cart

~Mona Bedi




meditation

a housefly wiggles

through my hair

~Mona Bedi




Below the Empty House


Assembled from the trash

that face

In the cellar's darkest corner

tumbled bones

The narrow cobwebbed stair

steeply descending toward

a congeries of murmurs

The flashlight dies

warm sibilant breaths

~David C. Kopaska-Merkel




Thunderstorms and fireflies

Childhood summer spreadsheet-stolen-

Too hard to monetize

the uncaged green

~Ennis Rook Bashe

~Debbie Strange

~Debbie Strange




how astronomical the dawn

~Debbie Strange




lobbing the ancient cannonballs of rhetoric

~Debbie Strange



mosquito thunder bouncing off mountains of tents

~Debbie Strange
