A Sample from the Editor, A.J. Huffman

A Bell that Reads Requests

Maintainability lists: a decoder.

Arrows dissect the wind. A bent thought

responds. The secret: presumption

is really open. (Can’t you see its light

is on?) Automation interacts.

You are dust. Your language, your font absorbed.

The church recreates

the bite – its volt is not small. Combat

experiments (the soda is really dirty),

gasoline-rainbow hollow, re-aligns the awful

middle. Prepare

for the race to the puncture! (Its echo

is everywhere.) A square

can never truly be your buffer.
