The Alabaster Cup

December 1, 2019/in Gabo, Gabo, Winter-Spring 2020 / Silvia Guerra, translated by Jesse Lee Kercheval and Jeannine M. Pitas

A crack is stained with the fog that begins on the plain.
The green of the curved jade grants transparency but also denies it:
leaves of thick dye, aroma that descends
clamoring at this somewhat empty start, condemned

November 30, 2019/in Interviews, Interviews, Winter-Spring 2020 / Interviewed by Regan Humphrey

A Brief History of Drills

November 30, 2019/in Fiction, Fiction, Winter-Spring 2020 / Paula Lynne

When I was in the fourth grade, I was certain the world would blow up in its entirety. The Soviets had nukes—we all knew that—and the prospect of it would send my ten-year-old mind into recurring panics.

Not Yet Five / Mother

November 30, 2019/in Poetry, Poetry, Winter-Spring 2020 / Alafia Nicole Sessions

With Cleopatra eyes and Sadé skin her words sting clear as Noxema lather:
“Mom, I’m not pretty,” she confesses. “What?” I accuse—“What do you mean,”
I spit and sputter, my mind scrambling to organize an understanding
of this violence she commits against herself […]
