Making It | Patrick Jordan
Watch me
push my way
to the top.
I’ll reach for the sky,
all green and happy
sun on my skin.

Poet, Loner, Thief | G. S. Katz
Those are the words that come to mind
I need you close, but not too close
Seducing you with my thoughts
Taking liberties with your heart
Sometimes you get into that in between time
Surveying the landscape
Hovering above the fog
I mean you no harm
To the contrary
It’s love darling
Plain but not simple
Do you want the last of the french fries?
I know, they’re bad for us
Resisting was never my thing
Denial though, well you know where I stand on that…
Five Poems | Nancy May
the East wind blows
catching a snow storm
holding childhood dreams
—–
mayfly
in the autumn dusk
on a tsunami wave
—–
Father’s Day
getting to choose
the reflection for himself
—–
traffic lights
looking both ways
on the road of life
—–
winter sunrise
a trail of thoughts
down memory lane

Revelry | Ananya S. Guha
The mind is a special hum
bee wasp droning
heaving pattern of remedies
soulful awakening
buzzing with last night’s excitement
of revelry.
Pub Life | G. S. Katz
Met an old friend last night
Pub up the street
Happy hour
All beers and wine $2.00 off
Pretty good deal
Had a couple of pints
Left Hand Milk Stout
The older crowd comes early
Not to mix
Cheaper spirits and good food
Monday night
Chicken wings 50 cents each
Front windows open
Humid out
AC inside
Moody mix of weather
No match
Vibe good
Laughs with friend
We sit at the bar
He has bangers and mash
I have the chicken club and fries
Gotta do this more often
Get a dark beer buzz
Laugh
Relax
New York City
Monday night
Hanging like the old days
Nothing beats the pub
Slice of life
Railway Carriages & You | Paul Tristram
If the train which I was travelling upon
was almost empty
when you stepped up from the platform.
I would still be hoping greatly
that you would sit down next to me.

Baring Arms | Rozann Kraus
Our bare arms are long
strong as our hearts
not as easily broken…
as they open embracing
comforting, grasping,
protecting
bearing witness to our loves
second to none
our losses
each wound stitches
healing ever fierce
our common core
our never gone humanity
our ever sacred power
to link hearts
in unity
banishing hatred and fear
as truly as
a new day
of justice and peace
