Ants find any sweetness.

Making the Centipede a Perfect Morning
by Rushi Vyas
after Colin Walker and Haley Heynderickx
It is not about the sex.
It’s about the morning light

white drapes onto the many-legged and red
centipede who claims the wallContinue Reading

I don’t play to lose, but I played, and I lost.
