Poem by Halle Preneta — 1/28/23 With lights blaring like spotlights barreling forward through the darkness ahead, highlighting the falling snow that leaves wet spots on my coat the longer I stand and wait for this car to pass. The white asphalt of the crosswalk glowing, telling me to keep…

Poem by Halle Preneta — 1/21/23 “Life is not the things that we do, it’s who we’re doing them with.” — Cecily Smith, Fly By Night — Mug of tea warming my hands. Laughs with friends. Hugging squishmallows, tangled in blankets. Dorito crumbs scattering across the carpeted floor. A movie…

The Beach

Poem by Halle Preneta — 1/1/23 There is an ocean inside my heart, filling my lungs with saltwater. Unable to breathe the fresh air. Sand weighing down my feet. I reach a hand out to you, trying to grab onto something but you aren’t there, nobody is. You know, they…

The Life Cycle of Your Average American
