When I Climbed Trees

August 27, 2018August 27, 2018 Jesse Albatrosov

When I was a girl, the worst thing I could imagine was being alone yet, here I am, sweeping through each day without benevolent counsel and making it— waking up to find these people are my people, unaided and I haven’t an ear to bend when I am unsure or Read more

Prosper

August 26, 2018August 25, 2018 Andrea Nardi

We raise our hands at the sound of the gun. We stand still waiting to be called on, but the race has already begun. Time ticks slowly, as we stare down the clock. Uncomfortably squirming, biting our lips and keeping them locked. It’s polite to be quiet and to wait Read more

CAMPFIRE

August 23, 2018August 23, 2018 Courtney LeBlanc

We spent that first summer together hiking and camping, pitching our tent on the smooth ground, gathering wood for our evening fire. We drank beer chilled in the stream, hiked ten miles each day. I knew you camped with her six months before, hiked deep into the woods, packs on Read more

Cancer Season

August 20, 2018August 20, 2018 Paakhi Bhatnagar

I felt it as the first wave crashed upon me- the water percolating on my skin forming dews, resting around my chest. I felt it as it drowned my throat and I wished that it would drown me too. But since the summer of 2016, I have learnt how to Read more

Claudia

August 10, 2018August 25, 2018 Kristin Garth

First prey then predator, princess from plague of corpses, rats — white cross/black rain. Wood rot, footsteps in smoke, cadavers diseased, grave resolution to starve, bereaved.

Thirteen

August 2, 2018August 2, 2018 E. Mason Kaye

She tells him she is thirteen, And he tells her that she can keep her shirt on when they fuck. She walks by the coffee shop that is no longer a Starbucks, But she is no longer the little girl Who ran to the other end of Grand Central on Read more
