Below is an excerpt from a poem by ESH Leighton in Issue II: hermes (the kaleidoscope)

Antilullaby by ESH Leighton

How do I go to sleep

When I did not put the world back together again,

did not tuck in the snowy owls or

say goodnight to the weeping volcanos 

When I am just an amalgam of a human

bits of flotsam and jetsam, flora and fauna 

bound in a skin sack destined for dirt

How do I rest

when there is so much work yet to be done

Issue II will be released on Tuesday, 15th June
