"From the dry and shade-less desert to the relentless
snowy mountains
I press on though I feel nearly dead
Through valleys of dark evil, upon quicksand I tread
I would journey ’round the world just to get inside her
head"
- The Quest, Dawn Tucker

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"Used to be ritz swanky
patrons with too much money
too much taste, now men without
money, without a place
curl under the casements"
- The Last Giant in Town, Jana Edwards

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"And there will come a time when I will never see the man I love
again. These are things I don’t want to think about, things
I always think about, and my body has grown
heavy with them."
- General Anxiety (Disorder), Marie Kressin

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"A small child playing, innocent
Unaware of the dangers of some playground “guardians”

It’s because of her.

A successful musician
Who allowed her voice to be silenced so others may speak"
- It’s Because of Her, CZ

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"If you’re wondering, don’t.
My man earns his keep, cuz he knows
it’s not any other way,
and it shows."
- IDFWY, Brittany Nicole Tims

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"The paint dries on my hands
And the smell of mold lingers
And lingers
Like the memories I hate."
- Internship, Gemma Guiomard

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"I am so small and frail,
And as I walk along the rocky path,
I wonder how You could ever unveil
Yourself to me without wrath."
- The Hike, Victoria Anderson

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"Rest now, child,
with disposition far from meek and mild.
You’re your own man.
Now, tomorrow, proudly stand."
- Rest Now, Child, Matthew Ablon

[Z Publishing Arkansas @ArkansasWriters]

"you do not have a hard shell
unlike the others
you are firm
holding in all of your secrets"
- Satisfaction, C.J. Sample
