Poem by Veronica McStocker. Photo by Miriam Canut Segura



Between the sun and the moon,
The stars in the inky night sky,
I float away with you.

A golden cloud
Soft and pillowy
We float away,

High above the sky
Gone gracefully,
But in a flash.
We are gone.

Challenge those to follow us,
Challenge those to find us,

Those disbelievers
Who do not believe in flight.

Perspectives
To you,
I am a you
And to you,
You are a me.

Poem by Tyffany Richards

Puertoriqueño

Eres perfecto
How can the world be confined to something as small as your eyes?
¡No sé!
The time we spent was
¡Ea' Diantre!
Why ever did it end?
Was I not good enough for you?
¿Era su guile?
No, it couldn’t be.
But what can be done
When you know you’re not in love
With someone in love with you…
Hijo de puta
How could I be so stupid?
¡Para jodiendo la pita!
Going back and forth
I’m done
You’re done
Se llevan a cabo…
