Three Poems

by Mark Irwin

October 15, 2019

On the highway, saw the eyes of a sheep staring through slats
of a trailer transport. Who?

I thought for both of us. The choices
I had; those it didn’t.

Two Poems

by Danielle Pafunda

October 8, 2019

I wanted to take you out shoplifting
mascara, reenacting all the scenes from
Marie Antoinette. I wanted us to fall
back repeatedly into a bed of extravagant
dresses, eat really good chocolates, listen
to even better music, smell really good.
Is that too literal?

The Afterforest

by Brent Armendinger

October 1, 2019

The outer bark cleaved
so as to summon
a slug, these oars

paddling air
opposite sun.
