What Happens When Monsters Fall Out of Love

by Robert Lee Frazier


"Jovian Thermal Incline" by David Senecal

The moon shone full into the window of stuntman Roger Tully’s movie set trailer. Roger steeped out of the small bathroom and directly into a pile of empty beer bottles. They clattered and then rolled across the floor. “Crap.” He smacking his lips together, wishing he had...

Roulette

by Benjamin Wachs


"Ericka" by Dave Senecal

Ten of the rabbits are going to die, Dr. Burnham told me: and I’m going to kill them.

They stare up at me from small steel cages, wrinkling their noses and hopping in a way that might be nervous, as I prepare a syringe filled with a cancer-causing cocktail.

No one dares to go where I go

by MJ Benedeto


ARS 2 (by Dave Senecal)

I steal.  You would never believe it, to look at me.  I am a carbon copy stockbroker-belt-stay-at-home-wife.  I live in a house that does not have a number because in our neighborhood the houses have names instead of numbers.   I play golf with an enviable handicap and...

War Buddies

by Martha Bridegam


the writings on the wall (by Chris Voyce)

A solo sailor is one thing. A solo flyer is one thing. People get used to the idea that a girl in her mid-teens can face air or water or wind on her own. They don’t trust her to face people. Not without being overborne in some way or other. A girl needs a protector on...

The Branch

by Kaitlyn Gentile


The Branch (by Aimee Cozza)

“The earworms are the worst part,” she was saying.

Ivan looked up from his beer.  She was staring at him with a nervous half-smile, her eyes wide black holes in the dim of the bar.  Her fingers interlocked around a glass of cranberry juice that she still hadn’t...

The Paintings of the Suicide Machine

by Ben Black


SB2CTU (by Dave Senecal)

The suicide machine was created as a mobile unit, an in-home service available with just a phone call or an online order.  It rolled on treads, and features many attachments that get the job done.  Pincers, hoses, retractable lengths of rope, needles, and bludgeons come...

Rue Benoit Bunico Night

by Scott Lambridis


Le Verte Heure du San Pedro (by Dave Senecal)

Every night, around four in the morning, on the rue Benoit Bunico in Nice, there is a shouting match between a man and a woman and though they are not always the same man and woman the shouting match always ends with a gunshot. The man is the one clapping and laughing...

Mice on Fire

by Eric Myers


Sketh6_fungoid05 (by Dave Senecal)

The ants always burned too quickly for their adolescent pleasure. The three of them would spend weeks building the miniature metropolis in Sam’s back yard, and it was all over in a matter of minutes. It wasn’t fair. Or fulfilling. It would have to change.

They’d...

Milagros in the Bathroom

by Juliana Delgado


ARS 2 (by Dave Senecal)

“Milagros, la verdad ó te atreves?”

“Truth”

“Did you make-out with the panadero on Monday?”

We all giggle. Rumor has it that half of the seventh grade has been fingered by the baker during
recess behind the basketball court. Rumor also has it...
