emerald castles torn from earth
thrash above us
violently
beasts and belles
together fly
like sparrows
in her rageful eye
though mother’s mouth
is strong as steal
it wilts and dies
like you and I
when things come down
we’ll rest with her
in satin sheets
so tenderly
“The Storm” by Angie Hoover-Hillhouse
take
in
then, away
with hands so solid
make something of me

“Bear #2” by Jenny Liz Rome
Jenny’s shop here:
seductive syrupy sea
embraces heavily
crimson encircles the body slowly
how sweet
to dream
indefinitely
“Sea of Poppies” by Meaghan Merrifield
“Poppies II” by Marta Wakula-Mac
More of Marta’s Artwork here:
onyx fingers curl
and stretch
through stone and steal
through blood and death
heaven glows in all of her
the sky below
the sea above
coming slowly
like the daylight
orange, red, and yellow flow
all is brilliant
like the morning
worn but strong in clouds of silk
“The Body” by Angie Hoover-Hillhouse
Ink stained hands ruin well-manicured plans
-Meaghan
“Twin Hand” by Miii
Visit Mii’s shop here:
the sherbet sky burns over the bruised mountains below
while the jealous sea thrashes about frantically
with watchful swollen eyes
and tired blood that no longer has strength to flood
legs stand
flacid arms fall
faint memories of when we
we were once able
to embrace it all
“Jealous Sea” by Meaghan Merrifield

That is so dreadful of them!
Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast.” -Oscar Wilde
