New Poetry
Joanne Jagoda
“Easy to Forget,” “Sometimes,” and “the other road”
To put it all out of your mind
That you might be living with a debt which could be called in
Any time by that unforgiving debt collector
Jack D. Harvey
“No Tree,” “Saint Valentine,” and “Dead Heisenberg”
a darling end to a bible story
or Lenten play beginning
you might say;
a betrayal of trust
Maria Volodkevich
“Self-Sabotage,” “Freely Drifting,” and “Blissful Anguish”
I tied down your limbs
thread by thread
preventing you from flying
Marcia Trahan
“Pursuit,” “The Endless,” and “The Unswept Sky”
Some smoker’s tar coats my lungs,
all the tiny quivering sacs.
Stephen Barile
“Mary Fleck,” “Something Out of Nothing,” and “In Rimini”
In the 1951 Ford sedan to a distant part of the city.
You could call it a city, but everyone then
Referred to it only as a town.
Sik Siu Siu
“My Bus Worries Me,” “Voice of Yesterday Morning,” and “Strangers”
tells me not to fear death.
He goes, Why should you fear death?
If you are, then death is not.
