“I wish to grow inside me
a healthy brazen love for the self, for a pleasure whose pulse I can hear through the doctor’s
doppler—its beats are a whirring like the flapping of giant wings—a life bereft of shame.”

Stunning poem by @marianneLchan. I’m blown away.
Re-reading Jerald Walker's "Breathe," a gripping meditation on fatherhood, racism, and illness. "You hadn’t thought of that for some time but the memory returns with awful clarity..." nereview.com/vol-40-no-3-201…
"And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes too near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness." instagram.com/p/Cd3fFsSrdcL/…
Hurray, @litmagreject! Love to see it.

Writer friends: submit your work!
Just a reminder that our May submission period is underway, but there's a cap, so *don't delay*! We're looking for fiction, literary nonfiction, and poetry for the print magazine, miCRo submissions for our online series, and drama queries for either.
