Re interview and repub'd piece @BulbCultCo per post above -- Shoutout to @blankspacesmag whose image prompt first inspired this piece, and to @SecondChanceLit (sadly on permanent hiatus) who published it after several shortlist placements.

For a variety of reasons, Second Chance Lit will be going on an indefinite hiatus. We hope that we've been a source for good and given a space for so many amazing pieces that might have been otherwise forgotten! Our site will remain up. Love to all!

For the day that’s in it: my poem ‘Romantic Era Proofs was featured in the latest issue of @SecondChanceLit and somewhat fits the #PoetryDayIRL theme of ‘written in the stars’! Read it here: secondchancelit.com/mcdonnel…

Our second Issue 6 spotlight today kicks off the "dawn" section - the lovely "Romantic era proofs" by Méabh McDonnell (IG: meabh90).
And I smile at you in the mirror
at the idea all science began as magic,
while you pass me the toothpaste.

Our final piece in Issue 6 is a magical story called "The Mangrove Roots," by Rebecca Ressl.
Coldblooded and gilled, he returns with seaweed so Mother can taste the water’s depths. He tells bedtime stories of the seals he dives with.

The final Issue 6 highlight we have for you today will transport you to another place - "Morning Cup Of Tea," by Beth Brooke.
the mimosa tree,
sun softening tar on the pavement,
blue sky,
terracotta earth that stains
your white tee-shirt

Our next Issue 6 highlight today is the hopeful "Vanquishing the Invaders," by Lorraine Caputo.
The cold & dark
of pre-dawn sinks
into my troubled
mind, churning with
what ifs …

The first Issue 6 piece we highlight today is the nostalgic "Sweet Blood," by @chasmp.
A smile redolent of memory,
for herself alone,
but flooding the heart of a stranger
with the sweet blood of love.

Our final Issue 6 spotlight today is the transporting, city-gazing "Delancy Street Exit" by @LauraSeldner.
all the times I've become a long-legged animal
teetering down the sidewalk in ankle-snapping heels
enamored with my existence howling at the sky

Our first Issue 6 spotlight today is the final piece in our "dusk" section - the powerful "Make Peace With My Bones" by @fannnster.
The last leaves of late autumn cling to skeletal trees. They rustle in a bitter wind and I know
it is you.

Our next Issue 6 feature today is the swirling, spiraling, "Inattentive," by @averyotherwise.
slowly i forget how to circle the water,
and unspool like a magician’s trick, like a reservoir.

Our final Issue 6 feature for the day is the unique "A lesson about dinosaurs," by @JonnyDRodgers.
Carried back in shoeboxes,
laid out on a plastic sheet,
they were specimens
that caught our breath
