The Last Post
There's a song in my heart
Even though its raining
And I'm carrying brightness
And all of the darkness
My heart is heavy
And light
The walls and the woods
And the silver stream
Winding through
Like a thread of joy
Tinkling down
from the miry bog
Two does and their buck
Move over the furze
With a soft glow
Slowly, even their leaps
Are gently flowing
Noiseless whispers
Ah, I've found you
In the scent of the mountains
And the breath of the breeze.

It took roughly three and half hours

#Zine team, these dates are flexible. Let's face it: it's been a rough month. We have a crossword, some Buddhism, and a few bits and bobs... but not enough for an issue yet!
CoSo, send us your dreams! Stories, poems, photos, art, comics, essays on mutual aid & survival, how-to columns around nature & crafting... Look at the themes for inspiration, and if in doubt, ask yourself if your idea focuses on hope, natural &/or communal.
Then send it to [email protected].
