By Zoë Christianson

I wish I didn’t fall in love so easily

Nausea Way Beyond Maalox

By Becky Peda

Spill so hopelessly on the floor.
The ones that take over all the attention,
The ones so goddamn impossible to ignore.

Is burning away, all this trust once built
Built for no reason at all,

By Jaden Gragg

An automatic mouth swallowing,
The girl who so surely stepped inside,
When she was little,
Hoping for a ride.
