Drano Love

October 25, 2016September 14, 2018 Rebecca Charlotte

If only you could drown the heart in Drano, unclogging the feelings stuck in your chest. Feelings that will never find words effective enough for containment. These words need not be heavy, since the sensation of danger is a strength in and of itself. But they need to be colorful, Read more

My Addiction

October 23, 2016September 14, 2018 F.K. Jadoon

You are my addiction, so sweet and tempting, like the aroma of my favorite meal, that I cannot resist, or taste. My path to self-destruction. Like an alcoholic doomed to die, yet, he continues on drinking, knowing that it’s death in itself. My very personal alluring hell, that I cannot Read more

Absolution

October 22, 2016September 14, 2018 Clementine Heath

Emotions methylated, Her dreams syncopated. Quietened by the slumber, A virgin flame burns. And then at once she understood… Through the veil of denial she had betrayed herself. Beyond the reaches of her sanity, Drowned out the girl she once knew. Awakened from the melancholy madness, A constant whisper delivers Read more

Grandma Josephine

October 20, 2016October 6, 2018 Joan Mazza

My godmother tells me stories of my mother’s mother, her aunt, called Pepina. In her forties, she climbed into a dumpster in the Bronx to scrounge for food, discovered a case of celery, but not before the dumpster was hooked up to be carted off, stopped by her screams. Grandma’s Read more

Camera Cracks

October 18, 2016October 6, 2018 Rebecca Charlotte

She wants to turn on the camera. Needs to turn on the camera. Must not turn on the camera. But feels compelled to hide behind her mask of peacock feathers and rage. And dance, dance for nameless, blameless faces, who fill her up with money. The closest thing to love Read more

Dibs

October 18, 2016October 6, 2018 Paakhi Bhatnagar

I stand there, crazy. No space ships waiting or begging me to clean up dust. Stars away stare into me like fire, encroaching. Single files blocking any desire left in me. Carefree and free was bound to be a slave. A worker in a field had a plate-gruel and a Read more
