good and bad poetry
by Bogdan Dragos
Well,
after you write enough
and try to publish for long enough
you just notice it
There is no such thing as

why do you seek the living among the dead?
by Bogdan Dragos
The old lady kept coming by
the hospital to assure the medics that it'll be
okay
"He's a true fighter," she said. "I know he'll make it.
He has won the battle with drugs
twice in the past. He'll make it this time as well. I

The dancing pencil in my room
by Garima Patel
The dancing pencil in my room,
Wobbling around the lines it goes,

A Prodigal Soldier of Words
by Hébert Logerie
I am a prodigal son of a gun

Going, going, gone, Homer
with his Odysseys and Iliads
and to all, a million ears lent.
Just as Romans did to Antony in Caesar.
Shakespeare's sonnets sold out theatres,
but I grasp at the same words as he.
I pin them to the walls.
I paint them on the mirror.

making it big in a small world
by Bogdan Dragos
other than

she didn’t know how
to feel about it
so she read the

they just knew it
by Bogdan Dragos
the last time they
saw him
happy
was when he told them about
that weird dream
he had

his kitchen
