Quote by Kristen Ciccarelli

“With her hand tucked into his elbow, Rooke led Emeline down halls awash in the golden hues of sunset. Vases bordering the windows sprouted green pine boughs and branches of bright red sumac. As Emeline quickened her pace to match his long strides, the fabric of her dress whispered against the floor.”

“Meanwhile, Hawaiian politicians tried to make up for lost time by officially granting cops the “right” to rape sex workers by spelling the permission out in the text of the new prostitution law. When a legislator discovered this provision in 2015 and rewrote the law to scrap it, the cops demanded that their decades-old droit du seigneur remain in place, and it probably would’ve had not the media gotten hold of the story and a public outcry not ensued. Now there’s a movement to decriminalize sex work there, which might at last free Hawaiian whores from the tender mercies of cops.”

“Imperfect Silence by Stewart Stafford The new roommates were, The noisiest people alive, Sandwich-making became, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Is that dishwashing? Or a battle reenactment? Vibrations from videogames, Shook the hollow home. Then the 7 a.m. rite again, Pianos dropped as you slept, And their jumbo jet snoring, Blew you out of the bed. © Stewart Stafford, 2022.
