My poetry excerpts from the new issue:



Marilyn Over the Rainbow
Annette Marie Hyder

If heaven is a place
somewhere
"over the rainbow"
where ruby slippers shimmer
and ruby red lips part over pearly whites
of laughter
and blue birds of happiness really do sing
the thoughts of your equally blue eyes
and if heaven is a place where all the good gods go —
the celebrities/deities of various grades A, B, and C —
then that is where I will picture you
so shiny and always smiling
at gusts of wind that whip your dress into a frenzy
but not your composure
that is cocksure-serene-pouty-posing-pure
and as white-hot-gold as your hair
for real.
 
I see you there.




Sadako Sasaki
Annette Marie Hyder

one thousand white cranes
all folded against the night
they were just paper

but their wings sang wind and flight —
carried you into the light
