Afternoon of October 3, 2024


 

Snake catchers are proud of their work

The jungle is the birthplace of dangers


This is what snake phantom pain looks like

Fingers trying to feel the wind


Rusty leaves tickle the belly

Laughter turns into intimidation of the enemy


Deceitful fangs threaten with poison that actually does not exist

The gaze searches for a house that no longer exists

Midnight refrain

Thoughts get thinner

At the crossroads

~Sarah Mahina Calvello




outside a colors shop

grounded on its half wing

a dead butterfly

~Tejendra Sherchan




a reluctant smile towed away by a flea

~Vijay Prasad




buzzed or was bee

~Roberta Beach Jacobson




night waves

hitting the pier

songs from the other side

~Anthony Lusardi




Past, Present and Our Future


 

Through the collective known as Women! – ever ready, willing, and able

 

to withstand persistent pressures and towering temperatures 

needed to become glittering, priceless diamonds 

 

      lighting the way

out of madness to sanity; out of chaos to order; out of conflict to peace;

      world no longer on fire

~Suzanne S. Austin-Hill




volcanic pizza burning the crust

~Roberta Beach Jacobson




powerline

a crow maneuvers her tail

to balance on

~Tejendra Sherchan




Dusty mirror

Time has not been kind

Vanishing moon

~Sarah Mahina Calvello




carefully :

there won't be any more time

~Mykyta Ryzhykh




repent, tick tock fan

time wastes the fritter

even a space ex
