Poetry Selection – Rick Bursky, Catacomb

The soldier next to me
drank after-shave,
pretended it was whiskey.
I crouched in the foxhole,
smoked a cigar
to keep mosquitoes away.
This was the night
a hill looked like a man
with a Roman nose and
bullets resembled fingers.
When mixed with mud,
blood has a religious taste.
The first emotion is betrayal.
This is the real reason soldiers crawl.

Fiction Selection – Eric Chilton, from The Pembul Variations

One day, when the footpath visible from the castle's arrow-slits was abundant with traveling merchants, Pembul stopped speaking. This concerned Pembul's parents greatly, so they asked of him, "Pembul, why won't you say anything to us?" Pembul, of course, could not answer, since he had stopped speaking. This only further concerned the parents, who questioned with increasing urgency, and Pembul's silence seemed to them to suggest insolence, and to be evidence of a deep and unseen rift emerging between them. This went on for some time, until their small family, once like a cloistered earthen mound, more closely resembled a boulder-shagged chasm.
