Elizabeth Koehler-Pentacoff —
Authority: 121
This question from Fatima: Did you like rewriting as a student? Or did you start liking to rewrite as you became an author? Students at school start groaning when we have tp rewrite as essay or story. I didn’t like rewriting as a student. But usually I wasn’t ASKED to rewrite as a student. (Which means the ...3 weeks ago -

Alright, then. A few weeks in and a few issues out, and the New Writing section is ticking along rather nicely. The chances are, if you’re reading this, that you’ve seen something nice over the previous weeks, and have returned in search of more.

We Were Dancers

Baby, we’re dancers We got that right rhythm That beep bop to the Django Shim Sham down the revue. That’s a beat so special Something spiritual As the tempo slips And our humps bump And your strong hands catch me From a peek toed pirouette. In African pant paces Lets ballroom dance the Salsa Skank the Jitterbug ...4 weeks ago -
The Movies, They Lie To You
Student Direct —
Authority: 439
The movies. They lie to you, you know. What did I expect when I told you I loved you? An orchestral wall of crescendoing violins, a soft-lit montage of moonlight and summer, a falling of the curtain as the story folds gently away, a standing ovation from the gods? Or that other answer. Tragedy and desperation, ...4 weeks ago -
Agamemnon
Student Direct —
Authority: 439
My heart has been stolen By a prancing puff of a boy, Its tendons cut like moorings, Its thick meat squeezed Like a lump of clay - It throbs, desperately, Like a rabbit’s hide in the fist of a noose. What am I left with? A lad Clutching a sore ankle, And a man who dreams of horses, Of wombs And of one-eyed ...4 weeks ago -
April Showers

The macadam shimmers and slides like oil in a hot spoon as drops from the tap in the sky collide into echoes forming momentary crowns of iridescent splash on the surface of murky transparency. The Sun’s light seeps through the soggy clouds: paints all beneath it in a shade of mud and old stone. The air carries no ...4 weeks ago -
The Dusk Before The Day
Student Direct —

It was beautiful, a moonlit sky streaked with golden Tears, not quite My own, but always there, wonders Never ageing with the years, lost To most. Underneath this light, I fell alone, although there, beside Me, Prisoners of Ineffability, not Speaking, scared to break the spell Frightened of my actuality, That night, ...4 weeks ago -
Abiogenisis

There is a sculpture of a man. He has evolved through hammer, chisel, art. Through each his stony feet and hands there bubbles life that flows from stony heart. And grinding diaphragm I hear, as from a baby’s gravel-pit first breath; a wheezing boulder overture: the sculptor Darwin’s banishment of death.4 weeks ago -
Wrong Turn
Student Direct —

Beautifully burnt tinderbox boy - he returns his top-hat to the coat rack, never once touching his sore, red scars. He cries out for socialism to take his shoe-shine hands to a lump of coal. He doesn’t need pushing, just pulling. Full of fear, he can sleep, shivering. More than once, a bloated fist has drawn ...4 weeks ago -
