Issue 27 / July 2019
"Breathless, the resplendent tale of coral castles
and starfish courtiers flowed from me as a tidal wave.
My father only shook his head.
He did not notice when a splendorous golden fin
broke the surface and waved goodbye.
You think this is a metaphor, but you are wrong."
- “She Swims Like a Fish” by Marlee Abbott
