Poetry: “Casting” by Noel Sloboda

From between toppled logs, spider legs and mouse droppings spill, as wood downed once again falls like fate, and I prepare to rebuild. Scanning the wreckage, I search for a catch to release the base row committed to ripening in place. The rotten logs must be wrestled loose, carted to the deep woods to be […]

Poetry: “Incarnation” by Anthony Opal

A by himself crow is picking at the bark on a log on top of a rain wet woodpile, black feathers glinting white, an allover misting of december rain on christmas lights— this incarnation as viewed from my office window— a father-forsaken shadow taking flight among us, lonely moving.

He put down the three martinis and clamped on a New England hard-hat, then went out frothing foam, having […]

Poetry: “Troublesome Phenomena about the Room” by Andrew S. Chen

It starts with the changing of a light bulb. Continues with the putting of jackets on hangers, the closing of a closet door. The Teflon flakes off in the pan, saturates the day with carcinogens. Scrub it, rinse it, dump it down the drain. Cultivate that blackened bottom taste. How well the household chores agree […]
