    Aberrant Thought While in a Check-out Line by Ed Ahern

    May 15, 2022 /

    It’s okay to cry or smile in private,but if among others, even strangers,displaying our mood is at bestbad manners, and at worstdemented behavior to be evaded. But would it not be simpler to copeif we blatantly screamed or sulkedor laughed out loud for no apparent cause?For we could sense the…

    Here We Are by Ed Ahern

    May 15, 2022 /

    What can be said or doneAbout what hasn’t happened?Yet living in the momentturns away the inner eyefrom anticipated pleasuresand awaited fears.If we portray ourselvesas what we wish to be,perhaps we need to worryjust a little more aboutwhere the hell we are. ____________________________________________________________ Ed Ahern is a former naval officer who specialized in…

    She can’t help herself by Mary Ford Neal

    October 1, 2020 /

    She’s smiling      the woman whose husband      will shortly have her murdered           whose thimble, whose sheets      whose husband’s flesh           will soon be warmed           by a more obliging body      with a lot more give and quite a bit less to say. She’s smiling     and at my leisure I can appraise      every detail of her…

    Mr. Walton by Urmila Rampersaud

    October 1, 2020 /

    I last saw him that Sunday. Sitting on an old pine log like a nuthatchstaring at the white morning glory in his garden. With quivering hands, he waved as the passersby called out, “Mr.Walton”.Words bounced off his lips but never reached an ear.He smiled as two squirrels ran pass him…

    A Glimmer by Jason de Koff

    October 1, 2020 /

    The fog’s incandescent glow at full moon,creates shapeshifters from shadows,like a blind man, the smells and sounds,become more effusive than ever. The drip, drop cadence of the bobbing vessels,portray the sound of gunshots ricocheting around the harbor,or perhaps, it is the step of otherworldly beings,seeking their betrothed from the land…

    Perfect Timing by Jason de Koff

    What is sleep,but the hard reset,of the mind.The brain changes configuration,releasing toxins,dispensing cookies. Repairing the damage,from cortisol-induced stresses,reducing sharp edges among the folds,Bringing to question,whether names can’t hurt you,as physical tolls prove otherwise. Flushing the system,with the means to motivate,and shape the daily masterpiece.Defined by what is left,the salvaged energy…
