The Whisky Blot
Journal of Literature, Poetry, and Haiku
I want to slam the steel tracks and bomb the railcar that’s scheduled to take you away from me. I become hard like you but not in a hotel way. The stabbing below my waist is the hate I start to have for the things I love: your five o’clock shadow, your David body, your Joker laugh, your addicting affirmations, your stare from green eyes we both share. all because I am not there, on the steel tracks in the railcar with you. Nancy Byrne Iannucci is a poet from Long Island, New York who currently lives in Troy, NY with her two cats: Nash and Emily Dickinson. San Pedro River Review, 34 Orchard, Defenestration, Hobo Camp Review, Bending Genres, The Mantle, Typehouse Literary Magazine, Glass: a Poetry Journal are some of the places you will find her.
