Where I Once Stood
By Teev Handal The ground beneath my feetWas once hallowedA place of striding giants Jefferson, Hancock, Franklin, PayneThe raw elementsOf the bedrock below For more than two centuriesAn evolving exampleOf peace and power With shores that welcomedThe humble, wretched, huddled massesWho seek only to belong But pride precedes fallAs a flash of insurrectionBrought low what was special Blood corrupting the landTo bring us off the mountTo join the league of ordinary nations

the One
By Robin Postell The last three letters I enjoyed slowly one by one…I know you think I’ve grown increasingly distant and it would seem so because I’m not reaching out much, but you are always on my mind, a tether I know is attached to me and sometimes I float out further and don’t constantly check to see if I’m still safely secured but eventually I always pull myself back to the ship of you My anchor The safest holiest friendship I have I like our connection as it is.

The Quintessential Sexiness of a Man’s White Shirt
By Robin Postell The way my body feels inside of a man’s white shirt is beyond the mere idea of sensuality, or style.

But even if you’re the kind of collector who scrutinizes the thrift stores men’s racks for them as I do, the thrill remains.
