Other work included in this issue:
magpie the white streaks at my temples
surface tension
we hold it together

pain
chokes
me
out
of
my
life
This issue also features the following triptych from my book, Three-Part Harmony: Tanka Verses (Keibooks 2018):
atonement
mute swans
under a moon bridge
the things
I should have confessed
make no difference now
the peace
that accompanies
forgiveness
after this long drought
an ecstasy of rain
on this day
of my atonement,
your face
a fragile watermark
at the edge of sky
1st verse: First Place, UHTS Fleeting Words Tanka Contest 2016
