Three Poems - Necca Stoller
"too soon, quick
dawn comes:
in the ebb tide-
slack water. "
"Image:" - Prose Poem by David
McDaniel
"A nightmare, a bad
trip, a surreal hallucination, fragmented,
a freak show, a neighborhood
circus full of smoke, screams and curses, weeping and
laughter and TV crews
and a fleet of large red vehicles."
"Elsewhere" - Don Mager
"Or is it gray
shadows, the bare-bone
dogs slinking behind each gate, eyes with
ice
white cores? They never bare their teeth."
"Leprosy" - Joy Reid
"... for the
inflicted
rings a bell
as surely as a leper."
"Cliffs" - Trina Stolec
"And I
never
could resist. I use trees as anchors
though they slip away..."
Two Poems - Paul Kloppenborg
"3. It is you that
I hear in moments of deepest closing.
4. You seduce the living blemishes from me."
