I'm always grateful to have my work published. But this publication is especially important to me, as my poem, "Lines for Jennifer Martelli," is in this issue. Jenn was as magnificent off the page as she was on it. RIP, my incredible poetry sister.

“‘Poetry,’ says Lehman, ‘is freedom.’
The emptiness of this freedom is unsettling.”

A digital artwork of a colorful space scene featuring a glowing nebula set against a black, star-filled background. The nebula displays a symmetrical structure resembling a cosmic butterfly, with radiant wings spreading outward from a bright central core. The upper wings glow in fiery shades of orange, red, and yellow, while the lower parts blend into cooler tones of blue, turquoise, and indigo. Wisps of gas and dust stretch into space, surrounded by numerous tiny stars in white and red, creating a striking and harmonious celestial composition.
Behold the nebula goddess—her wings woven from stardust and twilight's hues, a celestial ode in scarlet, sapphire, and indigo.
