Paradise
by Harris Coverley
the arch of your
hip in the morning sun
the indentation in
the mattress
the open window
allowing in a rustle
the soft and slow
regime of respiration
the popping of
springs as you get up
and walk as Eve to the bathroom
Along
with previously in Yellow Mama, Harris Coverley has had verse published in California
Quarterly, Star*Line, Spectral Realms, Scifaikuest, Polu
Texni, Silver Blade, The Crank, Songs of
Eretz Poetry Review, Altered Reality Magazine, Apocalypse
Confidential, Tigershark, Corvus Review, View
From Atlantis, and many others. He lives in Manchester, England.
Bernice Holtzman’s paintings and collages have appeared in shows at various
venues in Manhattan, including
the Back Fence in Greenwich Village, the Producer’s
Club, the Black Door Gallery on W. 26th St., and one other place she
can’t remember, but it was in a basement, and she was well received.
