James G. Piatt: What Are We Doing About It?

The Ugly Streets I roamed the ugly asphalt streets of the unforgiving city Near where the homeless existed in their cursedness. I Calculated the number of tears fallen by the side, Scarlet marks of man’s inhumanity to man, In every sob of each rusting soul, I heard the sound Of helplessness, and fear, In every homeless child’s wail, I heard the sound Of emptiness and hopelessness, and I wept.

Lori Lamothe: A Long Sleep

Image: Unsplash, downloaded (https://unsplash.com/photos/XexawgzYOBc) 09.04.2022. At the American Philosophical Society in the City of Brotherly Love In this room of maps and glass cursive names roam extensive meadows full of buffalo-- the old world ink endlessly unfurling its elegant, black flags recording for fellow travelers the long and barbarous names given these parts. Conquest fades one word at a time. So like a kind aunt I'll call death a long sleep and assure you som

Ana Kuhar: U dubinama

Image: Unsplash, downloaded (https://unsplash.com/photos/Rf7mZ_OIqPU) 13.03.2022. Kiša Nebo plače, vene za zrakom sunca. Kapi tihe pjesme šapću dozivajući mir. Vidim ti tugu u očima, grana se poput rijeke. Lom rastjeruje oblake i polako otvara se svjetlost. Ples Malen, pokraj vrela stoji. Sav opčinjen, velikim zelenim očima promatra njihov let. Lagano u visinama klize poput božanskih stvorenja. Tamna im krila nestaju u magli. Dječak odlazi. Korijenje Lišće nemirno pada Sjaji

BETTER Bitter flecks of resin dissolve as the apartment freezes, freezes in this red country I wonder, powerless, if all this destruction could have been prevented plants left in their pots glass and metal untwisted stereo blood unshed but the symbols of my desire are carved too deep into my arms now I must turn pick up a plant perhaps and leave something better than I was at entrance HAMLET Genet

Charles D. Tarlton: This All Will Someday Be Nothing

Image: Unsplash, downloaded (https://unsplash.com/photos/UUEQTij_WoY) 6.3.2022. Now and Then C'etait ma foi, la nonchalance divine. - Wallace Stevens There is no music can encompass, nor words melodic bring half-accurately to mind, the memories (now memorize this: the shape and texture, shade and hue of even one smooth stone on the beach, newly wet from wavelets driven in by the cold wind) afoot along the swash of the monstruous sea. It is a monster, that blue-green thing, st

Christopher Barnes: In Ashy Sky

Image: Unsplash, dowloaded (https://unsplash.com/photos/9Z4rDStDP6E) 27.2.2022, ALMANAC 36 Musicianship is bridged in recollection. Prattle a zest or irritant. This orb whirrs as it dizzy-rounds. Thunder's furore passes. Surdity nears, howsoever. ALMANAC 39 Waves - misgiving indigo. Tete-a-tetes amplifying, giddy. Uniform power-drive buzz. Quaff trolley is inched. The jet unrivets In ashy sky. ALMANAC 40 Transit is restful. Below par districts sheer off. Crows lunge, profiled

I.H.S.V.: Kad bih

Image: Unsplash, downloaded (https://unsplash.com/photos/Sor0TkALw3Y) 20.2.2022. Želja – Želje Kad bih barem mogao oblake dotaknuti i bez sustezanja uroniti sklopljenih vjeđa u mekušast taj pokrivač. Silovit tok brzaca kad bih mogao mjesto hladnom branom betonska profila riječju blagom, susretljivom, šaputavom pokoriti sjetom, spokojem dubina. Mjesec upitat kad mog'o bih barem u razgovoru pod djedovom brajdom da obasja svjetlom neugasivo jasnim življenja mi sjenovit put, neos
