Veterans' Day
panhandler points to
his Purple Heart
John J. Dunphy
slap of a beaver's tail
a branch skims the surface
of dawn
Pat Davis
bottom of the glass finity of a lone ice cube
B.A. France
my anxiety a fish out of water
Lori A Minor
rain on the river
then a rainbow
trout
constant rain... the stringy ponytail follows its mother's shadow
drawing the rings
of Saturn to escape
steady crayon
Rp Verlaine
homeless encampment
hanging from the dead tree
a birdhouse
bike ride
fall leaves backpedal
to the madras ground
Ron Scully
ghos(t)rain
Veronika Zora Novak
evening glow — a complete circle of honey bee
Goran Gatalica
ambitious
the tomcat leaves house
with three loves waiting
a circle next to circle full moon
Pere Risteski
my naked body
and the black orchids
in dusk
Orrin PréJean
in the mind
of the mountain . . .
hidden dragon
drawing water
in the well bucket
an eyeless fish
catching only
their own reflections
glaring eyes

5th Avenue
candy wrapper whips down the street
disguised as trash
