After almost a year with no submissions (except short poetry, by invite), I finally worked up the guts to start again. And here, my first flash publication in a long time. Thanks to Neither Fish nor Foul: www.neitherfishnorfoul.com/issues/issue...

publication in a while:

Issue Four — Neither Fish Nor Foul

trying to catch the flight

the victor and victim both

Yup. We kept geese in the Tuscan countryside for a while. That was a learning curve.

I actually can't stand this Tuscan cake (castagnaccio), but to my husband it's his boyhood brought back every year

autumn nostalgia
my husband suddenly buys
chestnut flour

Yellowed then burnt leaves
haunt the sycamore forest—
red smolders the night.
