Poem a Week
by Gary Michael Dault
Entropy
when I was child
this seemed like
a thin clean world
white as a paper plate
only a few errors
like a rusty car
here and there
my brand new
morning astringency
was first tempered
when I was invited
to play
in a sudden new
back yard
(door held open
until I went in)
where clammy vines
slid again my cheek
and insected brambles
picked at my hair
and when
after my mothered rescue
I first noticed
the paint-chipped
wainscotting
in our kitchen
and the scowling
curls of heating dust
languid atop
the spidery stovepipe
in my bedroom
and how
when my stepfather’s friend Ab
dropped by for a drink
the windshield of his car
while not really smashed
was shivered into
a thousand mica-like
shards and flakes
of marzipan-hued glass
you couldn’t see though
and the sun
on his old upholstery
smelled like
the predator vines
in that tumbled garden
next door

The Rough End of Summer
Travelling Palm Snapshots
by Tamara Chatterjee
Uzbekistan (November, 2019) – Our short week inside the historical city is still a highlight of my last travel foray since the start of the global pandemic. Our week in Khiva; included reuniting regularly with a group of musicians who continued to serenaded the minimal crowds as tourist season had dwindled down. My primary observation of the troupe was more often of them chatting and smoking between performances.

Leaving Taichung Station
by Bob Black
Once, scribbled
Suddenly (once scribbled long ago),
winter (before the autumnal light) broke through my window ,
(now along the fickle length of my arm)
as if a phone call spidering the den of night,
and pried wide my spoon bones (android and of digit) from the fat caging my heart,
and there you were:
sea and voice and sudden--
11 time zones away, from which you woke me.
Loud.
You carried a bucket of light in your voice as the sea grew wide from
Testament and grist
The Kangi of the moving of place, scribbling with the pen of your voice,
of boxes felled by time and imprint,
of the rattle in the carrying the remaining behind, the upplant, the stains,
the spider newspaper printing along the corner
the fingerprints of a poem once thought sent:
the tumbleweed dust in the corner, the wash and the light at the end of the throat.
This call our Archimedes, that shall be our Orion, ventually.
There is no app that can replace that, no code, no nimble mind,
the 1's and 0's compared, nothing with the shape of voice cascading,
the tiger run around the tree, and we shaped into leaving.
The pacific shelling up the tales carried on the back of what is awashed,
picked up the forlorn and that which was plated between us.
Turn, swerve, propinquitous night,
Ghostly but still left of bone, no longer bereft,
I am coming home to you.
