Divine Angel of Teenage Girls

By Quinn Kelly

Your lips are painted red like the roses they make rosaries from. Melting the petals down to
clay and shaping something new,
the way God shaped man from earth,
a modicum of faith is crafted.
They drop a subtle shade of red, like plum wine mixed with vodka at a party where drinks


Don't Fly Too Close to the Sun

By Lila Ahitov

Your ethos charmed me so
Confidence and ambition laced in every breath
I was struck by cupid’s arrow

By Roman Fent

If there were ever any doubt

It has now been thoroughly expunged from my conscious
The clanging and drilling of your voice
High pitched and shrill and the hollowness of hammer on nail
The ungentle touch of your never rougher hands
