THE MOON OR FENTANYL
THE MOON OR FENTANYL The first two weeks of love pluck out your eyes, Inject you with the finest fentanyl. Those blankets-tossing leave you mummified, But there are many worse ways to be killed. The moon watches from far away and laughs: How lovely, to see her fine influence Reflected in the...

KISS THE FEET THAT FROZE
Inspired by Nobody’s Girl and the recent arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. KISS THE FEET THAT FROZE I had one myself: A cousin not really a cousin, A person who taught me that once a door closes It might not easily open, Not in my own time, anyway, But at some distant point on the line, I and...

THE NIGHT CAFE
THE NIGHT CAFE Step inside the night cafe: It opens after dark. Baristas froth moon-lattes, And there’s lots of room to park. To pass on by the night cafe Would be a crying shame. Who wouldn’t want to be someplace Where people know your name? A special thing occurs when the stars rise. The doors…

FEBRUARY 7, 2026
FEBRUARY 7, 2026 What is the center stone? Is it the man having a tantrum I bounced from the building? Maybe it’s the baby wearing tiny winter boots. Perhaps, the little girl who loves hot chocolate, Or the gleeful perimenopausals cracking each other up. It might be the perfect breakfast sandwich…

DIFFERENT, KINDER
DIFFERENT, KINDER ◎ ICE rains on a frigid city. A new diamond glitters on a young woman’s hand. ◎ Waters warm that should be frozen. A child knows butter for the first time. ◎ A hard memory surfaces that I didn’t know was there. A different, kinder one rises to meet. ● Thank you so much for…

IT DISAGREES WITH THE INTERNET
IT DISAGREES WITH THE INTERNET ◎ Glittering key-claws, Dance on the spot, scan the clock: Rules for good girls, laws. ◎ There never really was a monster lurking: I was spinning alone in the dark, The ghost stories were working. ◎ Twenty years of moonlit steps: My experience tells me I’m safe. It...

WHAT GOOD IS SELF CARE?
Content warning: reference to gun violence. WHAT GOOD IS SELF CARE? Slip forbidden whetstone to a virgin weighing the odds. When she cries out for guidance, teach her to consult the gods. A flimsy blade is more cruel of a tease than empty hands. Unkind, to teach a fighting spirit that she stands…

PERSEPHONE'S IUD
PERSEPHONE’S IUD I work part-time for the underworld: My flesh and bones call in sick through the earth. Minions, they come to my bedside, Reach fingers deep at night, Pluck wombstrings. Hecate sidles up next to me, Glares down my dead-bug body. You deserve this, blood-denier. Die screaming for a...

TWO YEARS LATER
TWO YEARS LATER Dear Dad, It’s been a couple years. I’m more openly queer. The neighborhood that I moved to Is full of Christmas cheer. (Is there anything more alien Than finally being the adult to hang The ornaments to make the season shine, Knowing all the while You’re a poem I’ll never find a...
