Still Holding on

Life in stitches she remembers her purse

~Sarah Mahina Calvello 




Sneaking chocolate cake in a thunderstorm emotions abandoned
 

~Sarah Mahina Calvello 




Leaves whirling down the rabbit hole along with my worries

~Sarah Mahina Calvello 




the night curled up and cut its veins

heaven did not notice anything

only the cats turned over to the other side in a dream

the magic of childhood is over
 

~Mykyta Ryzhykh




bite my ear like salvador dali

drown me in a landscape painting

i flower flower 

i smoke smoke


~Mykyta Ryzhykh

in our galaxy

I am the landlord of five

pretending to be someone who was pretending to be someone
