JIM DUNLAP Stars, Shells and Fried Ice Cream
(For the good times) Reminds me of the 60's I told the waitress. She looked at me blankly. "You know", I said. "Black lights, acid trips, purple hair ... " "Oh!" She stammered. "It's only a highlight." I dropped her tip on the counter. She'd probably never been inside a kaleidoscope with bright colors whistling past her ear.

MARIAM NEIGER
'A Cautous mermaid...'

A cautious mermaid was thrown out of her realm onto dry land after a night of drunken revels. She hit the rock in a spiral movement and immediately vomited up the magical foreign words wriggling around inside her body. She raised her shoulders, took a deep breath and prayed to the great father. Jellyfish and sympathetic crabs gazed upon her with pity when she tried, in a sudden caprice, to tear her virginity's coat of mail from her body.
