VOICES FROM THE FIRE: Kushal Poddar
The Roadkill You already have arisen to the steady sobbing. “Do you think her son is still locked inside?” I step out. Night has left its sanguine plumes on our staircase; its predator moans in the darkness; spring mates in the pollen ridden milieu with humid heat. No snivelling I hear.

VOICES FROM THE FIRE: John Tustin
MOPPING IN LITTLE CIRCLES I get bored easily and I don’t mind menial labor But to do the same task every day or to do one thing for an hour?

VOICES FROM THE FIRE: John Stickney
