Infatuation

By Tessa Nelson | August 1, 2022

Love is such a beautiful thing.

Ghazal

I’m a little scared now

By Sydney Parker | August 1, 2022

You said it would all be alright

Ghazal
A color photograph of an uprooted tree by the ocean. The sky is grey, and the tree's tangled roots serve as a perch to three teenagers of darker complexion. The ocean's waters are churned into gentle waves, reflecting the clouded sky in a slate-colored hue.

Trusting

You fractured my rose-colored lenses

Snow and Ash

By Felix Everett | August 1, 2022

In the end, both ash and snow have their burdens.

Ghazal
It is a color photograph of a riverbank. There are swans and ducks swimming through the river towards the camera. There are weeping willow trees along the bank of the river, and the branches are hanging over the water, almost touching the swans' heads. The swans are in the shade, but further back in the photograph, there is a sunny patch of water with no trees to shield from the sunlight. It is peaceful.

Poetry
acrylic decalcomania painting, abstract. From top to bottom, the colors are a light sky blue with a swath of white cutting through the center, a dark, bright pink which bleeds into the blue above, and a golden honey-yellow with warm brown dark values giving the impressions of feathers at the bottom.

Decalcomania

White roses

By Kaylen Reel | July 29, 2022

Since I was six, I hated white roses.

Poetry
A pale yellow tissue embossed with a paisley design that has stains of red food coloring resembling blood in the center. The largest stain has a small, five-petaled flower sketched on top in a gold ink.

My Favorite Color Used To Be You

By Tovah Oslovich | July 29, 2022

Tulips are toxic, though rarely life-threatening.

Ekphrastic

I have been

By Rebecca Tsarkov | July 29, 2022

I wonder how she feels about the fact
that she will always be dreaming

Poetry
A color photograph of a belladonna plant, with light green leaves edged in a soft purple. There is a purple flowerbud in mid-bloom on the middle left of the photo, and a sigle pitch-black berry in the center.

It will cure you or kill you.
