I write poetry and short stories. All work is original.

Summer

noun.

[Season of heat]

I. Hot, exhausting days in grimy heat, starving and carving a sculpture that’ll never be completed with an uncramped hand and content sigh. Trudging down dusty alleys, tired, thirsty, and cranky, a line of ants with bits of stolen picnic food upon their backs march between crevasses of the pavement’s stones, heading to their mounds. A car honks loud and clear, blaring long, earsplitting wails as it swerves around a corner. The driver’s a gnarly man who swears as colorful as my Nanu's homemade quilts, with pieces of overused scarves here and there and everywhere. The sky is a dull patchwork of clouds on faded denim. And the summer is sunnier than ever. ~Munira R

a new update is ready to install

i easily ended up thinking

that this version of me

had reached the autumn of its life.

my first reflex was always

to throw away the current song

i sang to myself in the shower,

to dilude in tap water

my hyperfixation of this cycle,

to kill off whatever this might be.

but it isn’t about the rebirth,

it isn’t about the renewal,

the egg that hatches on the other side.

it’s about the rotten egg i threw away

and hope to never see again.

it’s about the sulfur scented episode

i hope to bury by pretending

i was never anything other

than this new installation

that i’ll present to you.

this is who i am

for the next forty minutes,

maybe.

this is a new countdown.

This is beautiful.

She unfurls blossoms bearing color, bringing what once died back to life. The song begins again.
