The deadline for our next issue is coming up on April 15th. For some inspiration, here are the Editors' Choices from the last issue:
garbage night --
i hesitate
with the moon
-- Tyrone McDonald
yellow leaf dangling from the snowman's lip
-- Bill Cooper
SHARK TOOTH
dark clouds scudding by --
a giant squid vanishes
with a sucking sound
the old whaler laid to rest
his hands on a scrimshaw cross
an ancient shark tooth
100 miles from the sea --
wind ripples the grass
a mermaid tattoo
on the young tree planter's calf --
the sound of reggae
again the falconer scans
the empty horizon
the day care pirate
slashes with a toy cudgel --
afternoon stories
-- by Allan Burns and Ron Moss
