elementia
the code of separation
By Katie Stanos7 november 2017 (sight)
your veiny, wan feet/expansion/between you/the floorboards/creation of
space
smacking the granite countertop breaks
infinity they say
Treading Water
By Katherine D. WestbrookThis is the pretend-dream,
where I am teaching you to swim,
and your body and my body
remember their names in the water.
Without Heaven
By Ada HellerI know
that when I die
I’ll sink into the soil
Be eaten by all the things I’ve eaten
Become the dirt for all to walk upon
I know that my thoughts are just neurons firing
That my heart is a collection of molecules
