When our fingers interlock in that pseudo-sexual manner as we sing our protest song and we’re dreaming of fists in the air, black t-shirts and posing for each other, cliff-diving and drinking until we laugh ourselves to sleep I will know that this is paradise. Events which won’t happen for awhile as we struggle against the currents— The ocean has mirror-flipped, and we along with it. When you go to sleep or order that second drink or pass a book cart or snap a pinhole camera photo, hoping the lighting was just right, I hope you occasionally think of me with slyness and grand hush, downplaying what’s not really there— The same way I place another log in the fire pit and refuse to blink as I search for your hair in the flames.

Growing in January
John anthony cahill
Please cut the sleeves off of my ragged t-shirts because it’s summer and we all deserve a good fling— hoping it lasts at least ’til next spring. My friends planted the seed and it grew inside of me until it became what all things shy of love should be: whispering over my shoulder, “tell her, or leave.”
