the fishes´ gills

filled with plastic

Thank you for the honourable mention. I absolutely love these poems. Mary Beth has done a stellar job and that turn really drives home the importance of savouring relief and wellness after such a gruelling illness. Congratulations to all. And huge thanks to the Wee Sparrow team.
