Editor's Note:
Issue Five is filled with dreamy apocalypses, unreliable narrators, galaxy brains, and shapeshifting. The stories and poetry in this issue all have a thread of softness running through them. These pieces are rooted in devotion; to a person, to a god, to a fight. Within these works, people are transforming themselves, becoming something or someone new because of their relationships. There may be anger or rage, but you can’t evoke volatile emotions without a yearning for something underneath it all.Short Fiction“Margin of Error” by Arden Baker, 1000 words, ~5 minutes reading time“The Architecture of Longing” by Jamie M.
