  • HARBINGERS by Tory Adkisson

    There are kettles of vultures                           resting on the stove.            Some apple cores                        rotting in the trash. Our home’s a monastery,             kestrels hang                         from the ceiling like tiny                                        bells. You get angry                               whenever I ask too many                         questions, but my gullet              hangs open, thirsty                                    for answers.

  • AUTOIMMUNE by Micaela Mascialino

    when she hears the word she pictures a car crashing into a column     her spine she’s told other words invasion foreign attack now missiles are guided into finger joints the left elbow      a combat zone like an allergy to a part of yourself the doctor explains her knees are sneezing

  • Barnstormers by Malik Abduh

    “They used to say, ‘If we find a good Black player, we’ll sign him.’ They was lying.” —Cool Papa Bell They tell me Pop Pop was some ballplayer. Copper toned, tanned like the leather of his glove; squinting on a dirt mound under Virginia skies.
