Malaise and death were my sole/soul's campanion for too long. They still visit from time to time. I am a yellowing autumn leaf; life is hanging on to me loosely.

If the colors of a butterfly's wings did not encase them like a bodice, their slightest fluttering in the air would crumble the butterfly to bits like a scattering of confetti. -Malcolm de Chazal, Sens-Plastique (trans. Irving Weiss, @Wakefield_Press) #surrealism #surrealpoetics
Sorry, everyone. We are running behind on the upcoming issue. Apologies to the poets whose work has been selected.

"Wilson’s latest is a wild, surreal trip down the rabbit hole. Anyone who enjoys stream-of-consciousness stories, as well as fans of artists Salvador Dalí and René Magritte, will enjoy this hallucinatory dreamscape.” —@LibraryJournal @RDSPress bit.ly/2H6kSVO

Would someone please tweet us an image of a torso with a foot for a head? Or a foot with a head for a torso? The roses have wilted—wilted!—humanity is dead.

How great it must be to be a slug. To live a short, simple existence. To only concern yourself with the immediate present. A life in which the greatest threat comes in the tiniest crystal of salt. Death by a diamond--a sparkling death--what a luminous way to end! #MannaSlugs

If only I could, once again, know the feeling--a feeling I mysteriously feel I once felt--of being a nightcrawler. Of dismantling the extremities that carry me aimlessly onward. Onward toward what destination? I am resigned to not knowing. #MannaSlugs #amwriting #surrealism

I walk alone, blind. In the night I walk with the blind vision of common man. The night is sad; it is dark and empty. I am the night. #MannaSlugs #amwriting #PenetratingGaze

I walk alone, not crawl. I have forgotten the ways of the slug--what it is to know the secrets of the universe--and sprouted legs. I am absent of my mucus, exposed to life's bitter salt. The salt of the earth, for a slug, is death.

A repetition of slugs. To become a slug is to become immortal--immortality is repetition--knowledge that perished with the Library of Alexandria. I broke the sanctity of that repetition when I stole one's soul. Murderous I.
