widow’s penny—
on the mantlepiece
beside his pipe
Rose van Son
a cast
of fireside shadows
war memories
Maeve Archibald
dripping faucet the silence between us
Tom Staudt
beneath the remains
of burnt bridges
my southern stars
patricia hawkhead
a month later . . .
her corsage still blooming
in the fridge
Vanessa Proctor
