Poem Contains text information about individual contributors to the anthology. Text Any textual data included in the document At first, as though our home were chosen by angels, we felt blessed, played host to our cherubic guests, fed them homemade ambrosia, admired their finery— ruby helmets, emerald armor. Should we have seen that they were dressed for battle? When every day they gulped our sweetness fast as we could pour it, when the saucy birds grew bold and big, and more came every day, should we have guessed the territory wars were on? No sooner now does one zip up but three more whiz around the corner, poised to strike, wings cupped capelike, tail-feathers fanned, their summer spent engaged in endless reckonings, while we, who blithely invited tyrants to our garden, dodge the small swords indoors and pray for early fall. —<a href="https://waqueeranth.omeka.net/items/show/406">Jennifer L.

Poem Contains text information about individual contributors to the anthology. Text Any textual data included in the document “Exultation is the going Of an inland soul to sea, Past the houses – past the headlands – Into deep Eternity –” —Emily Dickinson Westwardbound, toward Winslow, haloed in lime-electric bathroom glare, the mirror’s tea-green twin stays locked in her stale stare. Woman and reflection edge closer to one another, scrutinizing, running fingers through their hair. There— under straw-gold strands, new silver twines, yellow darkening beneath, shadows in a summer hayloft, aspens curving over willows in November. She will grow to love the other color, love this ferrying of youth to age, will abandon the mirror, return to the window, watch waves brighten with sun then turn dark, see seagulls race the boat, heads empty of destination, just flying. Just flight. —<a href="https://waqueeranth.omeka.net/items/show/406">Jennifer L. Scott (she/her)</a> Previously published in Poetry and Poetry Daily.
