Incomplete Enlightenment 
by Rachel Blau DuPlessis
October 16, 2018
The knife was raised
before there was an after.
He cried out, “Stop, stop!
“My name means laughter.”

by Ashton Politanoff
October 9, 2018

Three Poems
by Evan Gill Smith
October 2, 2018
Song of Betel leaves being moved
from one cheek to the other and
someone sleeps on a sofa, the peal
of fleecy bells in the distance.
These real things. These real
things that make everything
real around them.
