“In the quiet of night how loud the knock when ice cubes drop like gun shots. One of us melts, reshapes. Either I was with you again or I am water, stretching” From “What Wood We’ve Become” by Beth Oast Williams in ISSUE 25!

So happy to have two poems in issue 25 of The Shore!

I tried to watch the animated movie Flow with my dog last night. She fell asleep but it was exactly what I needed.

I’m really hoping Bluesky will overflow with poems, poets sharing their success stories, and journals and presses announcing their open submission windows.
