Evening of March 2, 2026

 

 

gunshots in the night

the street lamps illuminate

nothing


~M. R. Pelletier




Calm reflections

Stillness matters

In all this noise

 

~Sarah Mahina Calvello




the reaper

seeks profit

from rubble


~Patricia Carragon




Welcome


Welcome to rubble after war-

the land of fairytales.


~Partha Sarkar




harvest

a swollen coastline

spilling the sea

 

~Gareth Nurden




thawing morning

gurgling air

in the pipes


~Gareth Nurden




an unfamiliar bird

searching for scraps

sharp frost


~Gareth Nurden




Stepping out

Two sides

Of the comfort zone

~Sarah Mahina Calvello




Cafe au lait

Reflecting

Her happiness

~Sarah Mahina Calvello




desert trek

digesting how to be

a cactus

~Bipasha Majumder (De)




smooth sailing the sand catches the wind

~Katherine E. Winnick




Spasms


are back

in my hands,

spine, pins

& needles

haystacked

against me.

~Keith Snow




every year dandelions bloom

every year the old man sprays

every year dandelions bloom


~Albert Schlaht




the gods

mustn't be too hungry . . .

half moon

~Albert Schlaht
