A Fish Slipped Into My Arms While I Was Praying by Susan Varon I make my way in prayer and it’s like walking underwater, the sounds dim, I put my feet down deliberately, one after the other in slow motion. I come from people who were fishermen, my father and all his sisters sat on piers, in boats, stood by the side of a pond casting and recasting. They spent hours praying for fish to find them—bluegills, shiners, perch. Not a miracle with loaves and a crowd to be fed but a private dispensation, a sweaty wish worth wrestling for, worth a wait of hours. When I walk around in prayer I am fearless and slow, like a crazy person, but I look just like everyone else, that’s the joy of it, I can carry a fish in my arms of any denomination, its scales wet and shiny, its eyes peacefully closed, I’m the only one who sees it has offered itself in service in case I can use it I’m the only one who knows how to appreciate this.

Geezers on Parole After mis-hearing title of song, “Geezers on Parade,” at coffee shop in Stratford, Ontario by Brian Cronwall Their training wheels came off rust-ages ago. Their bananas have darkened to pewter, and they gum gum for flavor, energy, and exercise. No one ever told them life in the sun took so much more time than thrice daily walks from cell to meals and back again. No one blesses them now at sunset, shadows swallowing memories like milktoast and not-too-hot tea. Now and then, a smile crosses eyes like a bird flying, reflects on pond surfaces, then disappears into darkening southwestern skies. 86 Santa Fe Literary Review
