TURNIPS IN SOUTHERN TENNESSEE STILL
In Turnips in Southern Tennessee Still, poet Michael Lee Johnson weaves imagery of moonshine, memory, and spiritual doubt into a haunting meditation on the Southern landscape. With echoes of violence, history, and surreal reflection, this poem explores the blurry lines between faith, myth, and rural truth.
ANOMALY: CAT WITH TEN LIVES
In ANOMALY: CAT WITH TEN LIVES, Cary B. Ziter explores the layered consciousness of a cat in her tenth life—a poetic meditation on experience, desire, memory, and the wisdom earned through multiple reincarnations. With elegance and sly humor, the poem reflects on what we carry forward and what we choose to leave behind.
