selections from ANOTHER BEGINNING // Sheila Squillante & Paul Bilger

Collaboration

"...a saving vortex, droning yellow / that draws you down. encaustic, // enlarged. look / in // this feels like a painting, / like hands cupping clay, pulling..."

Because It Is Cold and Nightfall Comes // Gary J. Whitehead

Poetry

"...someone else strums / the stringed instrument inside of her / because it is cold and nightfall comes. // The fire-lit walls, whatever they become / become things we never thought they were."
