All We Can Do Is Wait
by Ed Rayher
The End
postponed again:
a shortage of Plague,
delivery problems with Brimstone,
Pestilence out sick
& Calamity must get some sleep.
All around the garden
rabbits can be heard
sharpening teeth,
winding springs.
All we can do is wait— |

Say Dance, Say Night
by Abbot Cutler
Abbot Cutler’s poetry is so fresh and clear as to be transparent.
Radiant . . . passionate, grieving, with a good bite
about the public stuff.

In the Provincelands
by Janet MacFayden
