A haiku is presented on faded yellow paper and illustrated with a sumi-e painting of ibises in dry grass.
It reads
rounding the bend -
twenty ibises
in bone-dry grass

Two people climbing ginormous ice cliffs on Lake Michigan. The ice cliffs and icy water appear a muted cornflower blue. A golden orange sunset glows off in the distance.

A girl is born
then twisted, unfolds
a gluttonous body, popping
each beachball moon
into a wide yellow mouth.
Once, I could
peel back the face of a planet
like a clementine or sit
in a creek & abstract
"How to fight embodiment? Expand / against embrace, shake radiation like a dog, / strip, condense, reconfigure."
A poem by ๐๐ถ๐น๐ฎ ๐ฅ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ป in the Fall 2025 issue

They say things come back
to where theyโd been before,
like some sort of comet feelings.
You just need to know how to wait
for them, you need to wear out,
standing still, countless pairs of boots.
This means the acacia tree
that was cut last fall
will shoot up briefly
from its old root.
That you will love me again
in a few billion light years.

A haiku presented on faded yellow paper, illustrated by a sumi-e painting of a double wooden door with withered pot plants either side.
It reads:
slaughterhouse door-
a row of withered
houseplants
