ROOM 47.4 Full Circle

Editor: Shristi Uprety
Assistant Editor: Rose Morris
Shadows: Melissa Barrientos and Kailee Wakeman
Cover Art: The Leather Man by Louie Fermor

“Many of the themes present, like grief and healing, are nonlinear processes, and the circular nature of these works reflects that journey. In fact, many of the pieces in this issue return to familiar places: to mothers and fathers, to childhood homes, and to people once known and loved. A number of these pieces play with the concept of time.”

ROOM 47.3 Bodies

“Even in the sticky bits, the undercurrent that emerges is one of love. In pieces about chronic pain, disability, and mental illness, there are through-lines of community, radical care, and self-affirmation. In poems centring trans bodies, the deep self-love that drives the choice to shape our bodies shines through. In such a varied collection of works, the one truth is that all of our bodies are singularly remarkable things worthy of dignity, generous care, and all the love we can possibly muster.”

ROOM 47.2 Seedpod

“Maple keys are built by nature like helicopter blades, which allows them to propel as far as possible from the mother maple. If these little seedpods don’t find a way to ride the wind far away from the canopy of their mother, they won’t have a chance of growth, or even survival.”
