Gender Play

Ken cavorts shamelessly with GI Joe,
resplendent in pumps and glittered gown.

Barbie and Midge strut in khaki and leather,
flowing locks butch cut into submission.

The boys dash about the room in a pink jeep;
the girls march off to a Lincoln Log camp.

The Erector Set fort flies a rainbow flag.
Mom peers through the Lego fence, disoriented.

Beside Still Waters by Jill Eisnaugle

Each person is but a grain of sand resting beside the sea. This thought sets the tone for Jill Eisnaugle’s latest poetry collection, Beside Still Waters.

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
