Cycles

cycles

stories have their cycles
like phases of the moon
or signs of the zodiac.

history is doomed
to repeat
and repeat
and repeat
and repeat
itself

until it shifts.

a new cycle
begins.

headless
heads of state
cry wolf on top
of melted ice cap
ice floats

with no food to eat
no subjects to govern.

maybe there’s a cycle you’re feeling in your own life.
In your own art, or in the world around you.
maybe you’re inspired to go in a different direction entirely.

submit your poems, essays, personal narratives, (relatively) short stories, audio or otherwise artful dissonance for our consideration.

issue seven drops mid-august at our live event

Deadline for submissions: July 1, 2019
