IT IS MARCH AND I AM SITTING ALONE AT A THAI FOOD RESTAURANT is prose entangled in over-watered houseplants—a love story that twists to stretch its mouth toward its tail to create an aching infinity. Harris draws a circle in the dirt with the sharp end of a feather—gently inhaling the dust in intimacy’s wake, tracing its sunrise and sunset, its cold and warm seasons.

PATRICIA MURPHY is a multi-disciplinary artist. Their work focuses on the need to understand what can’t be understood. They play with poems and artworks as possibility portals for free association.
