In the parlor sits his picture lined in lace Presented so as to the unwise tell, “There used to be a person in this place.” Her mother cried when I came to replace Her sunshine boy, to send him to Hell.

No longer named, no longer held, you are undefined but the birds shout clearer than ever. The bark beside you sings in a melody of shadow and light. Is it longing if you can’t spell their name? Transitory loneliness soon to pick up the pen. You are only marks on thin strips of birch. One day you’ll drink your fill and shit out a plum.

I offer blood orange to a stranger on the bus who only moments ago kissed his brother on the mouth. I’ve hung with rough boys long enough to know, I think to pray beneath the steeple of the First Presbyterian— only because it is beautiful, as he was. Later, passing through Woodburn / Molalla, a hawk in a tip top branch, fields of young hazelnut, a yellow house, an old metal barn, miles of cattle grazing, more mature trees rising up, silhouettes against the mist where dot after white dot of sheep keep vigil—clouds with blue sky barely visible, breaking sun. Beyond Arndt Road, just outside of Tualatin, cherry blossoms bloom pink and white on the same goddam tree.

In dappled sun through leaves of a towering oak under which they sleep, two boys sleep. Keep their secrets to themselves, who loves whom and whose heart swells for the other.

Their nerves made them talk and my boredom made me listen. I held their hand and heard a detailed account of every relationship they had ever had, before I even knew their name. It was in play group. Our mothers would sip lattes, while we rolled around on the ground and pulled each other’s hair. All these years later we sip the lattes, otherwise not much has changed. It was at a convention, he was dressed as the Ninth Doctor and I Rose Tyler. He grabbed my hand and said “run” as he dragged me towards a TARDIS photo-op prop. How could I resist that? It was a blind date set up by mutual friends. We ended up debating Russian literature, Marvel vs. DC, summer and winter, bread butter side up or butter side down, and American film all before dessert came. It was in a college. We had two classes together in a row. We always spent the walk between them chatting. They liked to keep me on my toes and never let me get away with easy answers. It was in a crowded coffee shop. The only seat left near an outlet was at the table where she was sitting. I boldly offered to get her a refill on her drink in exchange for the space at her table. All of these stories are true stories. They are just not my story. If a monkey typing for an infinite amount of time will someday produce Hamlet. It follows that infinite universes will produce all possible stories. The truth is, I mostly just sleep on planes and trains. I never went to play group and have never been to a convention or on a blind date. College lies far behind me and I flee from crowded coffee shops. The truth is, how we meet may be one of these, or none of these, or maybe we won’t meet at all. So in all this I remind myself that: All fiction is memoir published in the wrong parallel universe. —<a href="https://waqueeranth.omeka.net/items/show/716" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sarah Beth Gumm they/she</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Hard, barely any juice, tart and still crunchy, I’d persevere through the fruit so we didn’t waste, so I could be like her: seeking pain, denying herself anything sweet, refusing to allow anything soft into her realm, except me. A punishment of plums. We arrive home to a gallon Ziploc of plums from a neighbor, nearly bursting with ripeness, the skins eking their hold on the flesh sweet, running with flavor so luscious it streams right down my chin and into the sink as I take bites. Now, I eat the overripe plums so we don’t waste, so my daughter can have the sweet, but not runny fruit: seeking joy, denying myself anything unjust, refusing to allow anything cruel into my realm, except truth. A pleasure of plums. —<a href="https://waqueeranth.omeka.net/items/show/625" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Carrie Sanford (she/her)</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Poem Contains text information about individual contributors to the anthology. Text Any textual data included in the document My son spent the better part of today following people on TikTok whose usernames recreate the lyrics of Rick Astley’s 1987 hit “Never Gonna Give You Up.” There is, of course, so much to say about this – the jolt of satisfaction he must feel when, for example, he finds someone whose name is and or to. It is, perhaps, not so very different from what I feel now writing these lines. But here is the part that’s not in the parenting books, how when he walks into the kitchen to show you how many he’s found so far, and you’re trying to make dinner but the dog is barking because there’s an Amazon guy on the porch you don’t ask why, you don’t say Good lord go read a book. Instead you tell yourself Plant your feet, stay as he towers over you now from behind and holds his phone over your shoulder to show you, and then leans his head against your head, relaxes his body against your body, until it becomes a joke, of course, you’re making each other fall now, and finally you have to say OK stop I need to make this spaghetti. But for those few moments it was as if an animal had wandered out of the woods and into your kitchen, a moose perhaps, partially domesticated, a moose in a hoodie, and placed his snout over the fence of your shoulder, his breath warm, fur soft, smell moosey, before ambling away to find his kind. —<a href="https://waqueeranth.omeka.net/items/show/204">Bill Hollands (he/him)</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Poem Contains text information about individual contributors to the anthology. Text Any textual data included in the document I’ve been told my hands look like a child’s: too short nails, dirt stained, thin. I hate the sound of paper bags being ripped. My earliest memory is my mother telling me my job was to look after my brother and protect him; I was in kindergarten. My table is consumed by repurposed egg cartons filled with basil and sage, carnations and zinnias, just starting to emerge. My mom told me, You hate me because you are me, and I have never forgotten the rage and fear I felt in that parking lot. I avoid eye contact when I’m about to cry. My dog taught me I’m anxious-preoccupied. I don’t know when the grief will end. But did you see the great basin violets in the mountains last night?! My middle name is Johnna, like John with an “a”–because if you were a boy, you would have been named John after my grandfather. In second grade I got in trouble for holding the new student’s hand when I thought she didn’t understand where to go; her mom came to school the next day to report to the teacher that I made her daughter uncomfortable. I can’t begin to count the number of times I learned that I couldn’t be loved and gay. My sister calls me Winnie, like Winnie the Pooh, and I call her Poopoo because our young selves declared we’d be forever inseparable, so we split a whole name into two and each adorned a part of it to ourselves to prove it. I call the blonde streaks in my hair sun kisses; losing the sun was the second hardest thing about shaving my head. I have a tendency to stay in a room with the fire alarm blaring a little too long. What I love most about my name is the way it sounds when my brother and sister say it. The first time I heard the word queer it was defined to me as peculiar, odd; the second time: fuck you. I have scars on almost every part of my body. I swim with my eyes closed because I’m terrified of what I see when I open my eyes underwater. When my partner talks about having kids, I worry about all that I might pass on to an unconsenting party. My house is full of spice jars with saved seeds from my garden and dried flower bouquets hanging on a long string of lights. I spend my days tending the land; my hands are teaching me that I can grow something other than pain. —<a href="https://waqueeranth.omeka.net/items/show/321">Lindsey Hand (they/she)</a> Content Warnings Warnings about any potentially harmful or triggering content present in the text. lack of acceptance swearing Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
