Poem – MORNING GLORY (By Joseph Cavera)
MORNING GLORY (By Joseph Cavera) Ever since she raised her hand And let her voice be known We’ve all been bowed to understand The altruism she has shown Now in the days she woke too soon, And in the nights too late, But in the morns I could never relate How she’d make us swoon And on […]
Read morePoem – The Blessing way (By Michael Ifeanyi Akuchie)
The Blessing way many a time have I been told that the way to God was one’s heart & and that money has no place in the kingdom of God. I still wonder if the sight that my dazed eyes witnessed wasn’t enough for me to turn myself into the heart of thr devil because I saw a preacher glueing […]
Read morePoem – Relapsing (By Valentina Cano)
It falls on me like a net, chainmail over my shoulders, wanting to kiss its satin cousin. I raise fists and switchblade claws but there’s no piercing through.

Read morePoem – Arcachon (By John Swain)
Arcachon Ebb tide to sea wave breaks, headland entrance, bay flow while the mooring buoys lie beside their weighted chains, seas gather, a grass island rises for the gull and heron-spear.

“EINE KLEINE STEIN-MUSING” To knock him from his pedestal Is task long overdue. His theories now untenable; No glory privy to. Proclaimed a “genius” famously Because of one eclipse, When none at time knew truthfully The reason for those blips. “It’s space-time’s warping by the sun That makes the starlight bend.” When really then was known […]
Read morePoem – Philosophical Differences (By David B. Axelrod)
PHILOSOPHICAL DIFFERENCES The backseat driver sits by my side applying the brakes, cautioning, “There’s a car!” which, by the way, is ten car lengths ahead at a corner and I am already fully aware. “Here are the keys,” I offer, stopped at the roadside, “Would you prefer to drive?” But now, she is offended, says she just […]

Read morePoem – LIFE AFTER DEATH (By Ray Gallucci)
LIFE AFTER DEATH (One Day in Pompeii) We walk the stones of Pompeii Where grooves from chariots live And try to fathom that day When Mt. Vesuvius heaved. The mountain belched now and then Whenever Vulcan saw fit To blow his bellows again And clean his forges of grit. Some smoke and ashes the norm. The […]
