Two Poems by Jane Costain




Talia Cutler attends Trinity College majoring in English Language and Literature. She hails from East Coast soil – the metamorphic stuff and continental margins, not the sandy parts. She often writes herself into corners and is in pursuit of things that are beautiful, such as large bowls of apples, crosswords, and the Blue Ridge Mountains. She has previously been published in Rainy Day Cornell, The JAR, and has won two Scholastic Writing Awards. She enjoys em dashes, oxford commas, and David Foster Wallace.
Stefan Balan submitted one of the three winning poems in 3rd Wednesday’s annual poetry contest. Contest judge, Ronnie Hess, said “Interruptions is a location poem that in its tightness and painterliness sets the scene with humor, tenderness, and compassion. Can we catch the moments of our lives, remember them, celebrate them, let them go? Please, yes, yes, yes. Well done!”
