Las Manos

April 22, 2024April 22, 2024 Gretchen Corsillo

Heart’s Paradox

November 6, 2023November 6, 2023 Paula R. Hilton

When you weren’t looking, I slipped a piece of my heart, its left ventricle, into your suitcase. This chamber pumps blood throughout the entire body. Mine, yours, ours.

Drowning

September 6, 2022September 6, 2022 Hannah Bagley

Pull me in and take me under. Throw me overboard—hold me under the waves. How I wish I could drown in the expanse of you.   Take the air from my lungs and give me yours. Let me paint you with care, turn your skin smooth as river rock— polished Read more
