1/30/07: The New Evolutionary Wars by Thomas B. White All pedestrians are lizards / disguised in trousers and skirts
11/21/06: A November, Disjointed by David Poore A clock without hands keeps time without seconds— / Moments crawl by like bubbles in a vat of molasses
10/24/06: Spookhouse by Brian Fanelli Yellow eyes of the bony cat / Peer through the cracked windows.
7/12/06: Sensing the Night by Bob Nimmo Savouring / the soft pickling of day’s end, / the heaviness of time descend; / sun sliding seaward, / pallid orb a fickle friend.
7/5/06: One Night in Bombay by Jack Cosmos Just another night of wicked fun / On the wrong side of the Moon / On the right night in the mean streets of Bombay
6/28/06: Madness by Jon Ayre For on that journey, madness waits, / To blur the lines of joy and sorrow, / To mark the days beyond tomorrow
6/21/06: Sprite by M. Marinda Slow as the trickles / fast as the streams / the salmon it tickles / gives it its dreams
6/14/06: Late Night Drive by Brian Fanelli Air stinks of gasoline and dust, / as we pull into a driveway, / away from revealing city lights.
3/14/06: The Waltz by David Poore Ever pounding, pounding, pounding / With the notes ever resounding / Flying faster, faster, faster / All inviting a disaster
2/14/06: The Clockwork Heart by Murray Graham Poor mechanical thing, no guilt I assign, / The blame to be had is entirely mine
12/20/05: Incantations by Stormm Calling that, which cannot be grasped, / As though we have only but to ask
11/10/05: Hoping This Makes You Uncomfortable by David Poore Thinking outside the outside / When you're already outside the box / When there is no outside or box
9/15/05: The Temporary Mountain by Will Turner Instead of the wreckage / Was a great snowy peak
