Cool Announcement: A Freebie, Mouth Full of Stones by Debbie Strange

My Dear Readers:

NeverEnding Story contributor, Debbie Strange, published a collection of sociopolitically conscious  haiku, Mouth Full of Stones (Title IX Press, 2020), and she shared her fine work as a free download available at Title IX Press website.

Selected Haiku:

dry lightning
her mattress scarred
with cigarette burns

day moon
(dis)appearing
sister’s thin face

hot (fl)ashes the combustibility of womxn’s rights

cows and calves
bawling at weaning time
my breasts ache

angry words
the gossip of gulls
d r i f t i n g

street kids
shadows fold
into the night

neon lights
a cardboard roof
sags with snow

cyberbullying
the buzz of a high voltage arc

permafrost
a polar bear’s paws
sink deeper


Happy Reading

Chen-ou
