America’s / culinary roots / & Caribbean flavors Ignore the variable sample size, even when there are such influential outliers in the data as the Dearborn Truck Plant, an upscale specialty sandwich concept shop unmatched by any nearby drug store. I have been guilty of eating the odd haute/uberchic/upscale sandwich myself! The Kill- deer & Canadian Geese that nest on its green roof can be dealt with by rule-directed searches through mutation sequence space that incorporate energy production as well as food producing facilities. It will be days before authorities can determine the cause of death. Materialist hermeneutics The oven is a resonant space within which I can move easily. I put an egg & some hotdogs in- to it; what comes out is expanded & dynamically rearranged. Each time it is the event itself which operates against the ego in order to make room for deconstruction; & in doing so, opens a window in which to explicitly address the techno-sexuality of the digital page. Sousa phoned Snare drum undone is hum- drum until rimshot or paradiddle pokes noise into its silence. Such a puzzle, perhaps part riddle. Stick figures giving flesh to frame- work. Is con/ un/drum. Cultural artifice Gerbils are not for- bidden, nor are the latest Broadway refrains, even when played on rubber violins. The conservative Ordnung that guides Swartzentruber practise is still moderate enough not to alienate swing voters. Attracted by it he started back for Cedar City. Rarely is the Toreador's song more successfully achieved. Pectoral No content at the moment but later will be. It's possible the ultimate constituents of the planned structure might consist wholly of senses or concepts but it's more likely to be hot muscle car babes with great curves that love muscle cars & the guys who own them. Surprising how fish survive so well in what must be a harsh & hostile environment.

Poetry from J.J. Campbell
sadness becomes loneliness it's the laugh, the gentle i love you late at night, the warm embrace and suddenly remembering how many years it's actually been how the touch of a woman is nearly foreign to you now hopeless should never come up when you think about sex sadness becomes loneliness before you even realize the world has left you behind -------------------------------------------------------------- start the weekend a thunderstorm before the morning coffee not exactly how i wanted to start the weekend but you're old enough now to know you don't get to choose such things your place in life doesn't allow it -------------------------------------------------------- two vapid souls shuffling down the boulevard a skeleton of a man thinning goatee and hollow eyes holding hands with his woman a soul crushing blonde light years out of his league most assume there are two reasons why she is with him girth and wealth most assumptions are true more than we actually realize two vapid souls searching for a better tomorrow if such a thing even still fucking exists --------------------------------------------------------- a zombie apocalypse the muse believes she can't trust me during a zombie apocalypse that makes me laugh she apparently doesn't understand that i will be dead before any of that ever happens zombies, an apocalypse, or a glorious heel turn more pressing matters are at hand as usual like rent, taxes, a check engine light that always seems to come on at the least opportune times not to even mention where one might be able to find some non-toxic land to grow food or whatever else --------------------------------------------------------------------- a soft rain in the sunshine two loose shits within five minutes of waking up jack daniels for dinner strikes again a stray cat comes to our backyard looking for birds or some food luck never appears in this damn town a soft rain in the sunshine a lonely woman wonders of a better way to die here comes a daydream meant for a better soul the cocaine always runs out on a tuesday night right as she starts to feel ok with doing it for money once again -------------------------------------------------------------------------- J.J. Campbell (1976 - ?) is old enough to know better. He's been widely published over the years, most recently at Disturb the Universe Magazine, The Beatnik Cowboy, Lothlorien Poetry Journal, Black Coffee Review and The Asylum Floor. Rumor has it that he might have a joint chapbook coming out this summer with Casey Renee Kiser. You can find him most days on his mildly entertaining blog, evil delights.

Poetry from Stephen Jarrell Williams
Think About It Turning myself inside out for you so you can sniff and contemplate if I'm worth a smoke all my jokes meaning more than tears and you're beginning to understand my love is beyond endless and more faithfull as the spin of the earth and beat of stars so come and make us as one.... A Way Home Let's run together quick step and jump holding hands over this nervous world sun tanning our bare backs and rumps easy breathing and laughing with no fear we will be like children long before the aging of flowers their scent stopping time in awe so smack your lips we're going to kiss a sugar dream lasting forever! Flight In the air floating I'm your hero and you're my Goddess clouds soft stopping when we want lying upon them sunset's far reaching fingertips of warmth we dance naked into a night sky of teasing stars. Created And when our dreams melt we will float in the sea under the night with the coming dawn I seeing you and you seeing me soon in heaven where we were created to be.

Poetry from Lilian Dipasupil Kunimasa
No Love to Go Back How can we go back To what's gone and done It's hard to be blind How our hearts changed Don't know what to do Feelings may've been true All is past behind All is done and gone No way to go back I have known back then The day it begun You said you love me How our hearts changed Don't know what to do Feelings may've been true Case of infamy Life ended the fun Have I known back then Heaven is for us But I did wonder When we're together How our hearts changed Don't know what to do Feelings may've been true There's no forever So I did wonder Is heaven for us I have lost your love Nothing's left for us Knew would never last How our hearts changed Don't know what to do Feelings may've been true All is in the past What else's there for us I have lost your love No love to go back... Pained Memories I tried to go back Through my life story And it's hard to say Hindsight's not a thrill If only you know That it's not funny And I won't complain Though it makes me chill - I've felt ever since Day you came along Said you'd stay a while And be here with me You didn't tell me That you can't belong And I trusted you Believed all you say - Heaven is for us But I did wonder If we're together When we kiss today Love can't ever be There's no forever I cannot insist I get what I may - I have lost the past Knew would never be All that's left for us I wish not to see Lilian Dipasupil Kunimasa was born January 14, 1965, in Manila Philippines.

Poetry from Graciela Noemi Villaverde
MINSTREL OF WORDS His sayings crashed against the walls His anguish was no more than another new frivolous tape, crowning a brain who played the game of errors Eloquence is not enough The heart oscillates tonight and slides off the edge of an eyelid, Wavering in the swamps of petty goodbyes, Mercy... For the man who passes free from your shadow, free from you Mercy For those who analyze the foam of the underworld Wizards of the spike, Bonfire Bird Embalmers Memory footprint ... Frozen His revolution celebrated the apotheosis of life in decline Meanwhile, she continues to dream of a bed laced with rose petals. She keeps forgetting the reality of her always coming back to a life full of sunshine. GRACIELA NOEMI VILLAVERDE is a writer and poet from Concepción del Uruguay (Entre Rios) Argentina. Based in Buenos Aires, she graduated in letters and is the author of seven books of poetry, which have been awarded several times worldwide.

Poetry from Mahbub Alam
The Rainless Draught Once we were filled with rivers and fishes Our ancestors told us the story of rain and flood The Bangalee lived on fish and rice Now, the rivers seen like the migratory birds In season or out of season Sometimes, draught happens enough to burn the world Sometimes water and water are everywhere Deluging the land in the open sky Make people and animal homeless surrounding all Nature in us and nature outside Responsibly goes to the conscience Humanity sometimes played like instruments In the clasp of nature – The severe inhumanity Sometimes, it played as a trump card Winning the race, a common play in the world We suffer from the pain in body or heat stroke Or float on the land submerged by overflowing water What’s the bridge of relation?Where the gates are set to hinder the flow And the door closed for suffocating in the waterless rivers People pass the days in torture for high temperature And the rainless atmosphere Would you please expand your hand? O Creator! We pray utmost to you The mild temperature to go in the world you made for. Chapainawabganj, Bangladesh, 25 April, 2024. Md. Mahbubul Alam is from Bangladesh.

Poetry from Maja Milojkovic
Poets Power In the realm of chaos, we seek peace, Where poets' words make conflicts cease. With ink as our sword and love as our guide, We stand united, side by side. Through verses woven with care and grace, We paint a world where hatred has no place. In the tapestry of dreams, we stitch our hopes, Binding nations together with poetic ropes. Let the rhythm of our lines echo loud, As we sing of love beneath the shroud. Brotherhood and sisterhood, hand in hand, Together we'll build a peaceful land. So let us raise our voices high, And let our words touch the sky. For in poetry's embrace, we find, The power to heal humankind. Maja Milojković was born in 1975 in Zaječar, Serbia. She is a person to whomfrom an early age, Leonardo da Vinci's statement "Painting is poetry that can be seen, and poetry is painting that can be heard" is circulating through the blood. That's why she started to use feathers and a brush and began to reveal the world and herself to them. As a poet, she is represented in numerous domestic and foreign literary newspapers, anthologies and electronic media, and some of her poems can be found on YouTube. Many of her poems have been translated into English, Hungarian, Bengali and Bulgarian due to the need of foreign readers. She is the recipient of many international awards. "Trees of Desire" is her second collection of poems in preparation, which is preceded by the book of poems "Moon Circle". She is a member of the International Society of Writers and Artists "Mountain Views" in Montenegro,and shealso is a member of the Poetry club "Area Felix" in Serbia.
