Trespass Point
Nothing was broken. She'd gone down to the dock to see the heron. The rocks were slick with algae and morning dew, and her feet in her worn hiking boots had bolted out from under her with astonishing force. Leaning on a stick, she'd made it back up the hill,…

Pink Matter
I have been told many things by men. Most slide through my brain, painful but fleeting. Others etch themselves deep into the pink matter like a brand: “I usually only go for black women, but I'd make an exception for you. I ain't ever seen a white woman with all…
I Don’t Know What Possessed Me
“My first reaction to most things is, 'Fuck this, fuck you, this is bullshit,'” I said. My therapist blinked. “You don't seem like an angry person to me,” she said. You don't seem like a good therapist to me, I thought, but instead said, “Oh?” I don't get angry, as…
For All the Birthdays
Lydia hasn't seen Paul in five years. He is behind her in the queue, holding a can of baked beans, a pint of skimmed milk and a loaf of gluten-free bread. It is a moment of recognition that suspends them both. She tries to say his name, but the man…
Memory in Tibet
Illustration by Connie Chang Tibetan Plateau The sky was high and blue. White clouds floated by like the shed feathers of some enormous bird. This was the typical picturesque scenery here—the Tibetan plateau, high above sea level, pure and uncontaminated like some heavenly realm hidden from the prying eyes of…
I Am No Beekeeper
My housemate sleeps all day, makes art all night, and paints giant bees. “I want people to feel my paintings,” she says, stroking the palm of her hand against a still dripping head-to-toe canvas. I keep my hands in pockets. We've only been at the art residency for a week,…
Washing Light
Say: Have ye thought: If (all) your water were to disappear into the earth, who then could bring you gushing water? —The Noble Quran: Surah Al-Mulk (The Sovereignty) 67:30 I will treasure bathing my son. Placing him in his tub. Little hands tapping the water. A plump, tiny pilgrim enjoying…
Bottle Girl
At 8 a.m. on a Sunday morning I found myself running east on 33rd Street from Madison Avenue. I didn't know how I'd gotten there or where exactly I was going. It was July and the New York air was dewy. I could feel the strings of my bikini—tied too…
Sea Changes
My grandfather slipped quietly beneath the waves one day shy of his 70th birthday. His modest fishing craft, the pea-green Minato-Maru, was found bobbing peacefully on the ocean a little way from shore. As per local tradition, the boat had its anchor down but was otherwise unmoored, allowing for an…
The Demulcent of Shame
I'm sitting by the edge of a lake, waiting for my husband to come and tell me we're over, that I've bamboozled him into our marriage, and he can't stay in a relationship with a fraud. He's about ten feet away, inside our little lake house, lying on the floor…

The Golem Mother of the Catskills
None of us will forget the sight of Elisheva Bornstein walking up the dirt path from the lake that day in 1984. Her hair was exposed, grey roots blending into the blonde it threatened to overtake. Her head scarf, the color of which some of us still argue over, pink…
Cryptozoology
Illustration by Magnus van der Marel My spine is hooked on an invisible line, and every few minutes I feel a sharp yank on the barb. “Yanked by what?” says Josh, rolling tobacco muck between his gums. “A cloud-dwelling fisherman. Or Earth's magnetic fields. Or my ex-wife's voodoo dolls. Take…
