“stroking a slow finger over / one dusty cover and its blue // eye-shadowed model until X. / said That’s his skin, that dust / and his finger stopped and we / looked at the dust differently.” Read “Hauntological” by Michael Bazzett in our latest issue: www.brokenantlermag.com/issue-six-po...

“Time lets herself in; I pour us tea without sugar. She understands, she says. She leaves. She leaves. Sand drips down her face. It slips from her mouth mostly, when she talks, and from between her eyelashes when she blinks.” oh i’m OBSESSED

“Pluto has no ocean that I recognize. There is a great mass of something fluid and alive, and it might be the sky. Things don’t end here the way they do.” Read “In the Halfway House on Pluto” by Sophie Hoss in Issue Six
