The Virtue of Silence

In honor of the baseball season starting yesterday, I'm pitching a double header this week! (Okay, that's just a random coincidence, and I apologize for the bad sports joke.) But it's the truth: two new stories are going up this week: a short poem followed by a less short story (being published by North by Northwestern). First up, poetry. Don't you just love spelling in the English language?

Knights thought through tough throws

While gnats’ caught coughs pealed, pierced, clanged

Knights’ brains, gnats’ throats throbbed
