Of what are people
dreaming
that moment they die
in the throes of sleep?

Cul de sac
Bathed in moonlight is the perfect
Meeting
place
Sarah Mahina Calvello
backyard in Brooklyn
last autumn’s maple leaves
by the cyclone fence—
bare branches now full
with
the song of many birds
Tim Dwyer
I blinked and missed it —
the present
became
the past

alley drinkers
veterans of different wars share
the
same bottle

Joshua St. Claire
Verdi's
A
a house wren
plucking a cosmic string
Joshua St. Claire
nothing
more to see here waning crescent moon
Joshua St. Claire
color theory
the
changing waves
of sky, sea, and shell
Joshua St. Claire
whitecaps
universes
come into existence
then collapse
Joshua St. Claire
never
a moment of rest
all night
alone in this room
with
a mosquito

leaf
fall losing another reason to stay

between waves the piper’s tiny cry

arctic
blast day two
agoraphobia mixed
with cabin fever

I
take out the trash
& look up to see the moon
seems full
but it’s not

halfway
thru winter
the young man across the hall
lets his front
door slam
