Lazy Sunday editorial
Trump, Trump, Trump
Tips for saving money
as you travel
(I won't be traveling
this summer.)
Five recipes using
coffee as an ingredient
(I'd try three of
them.)
A writer's memories of
raising his daughter
(Nice and all, but my
memories are slightly more interesting to me, thank you.)
A poem with the word
“bone” in it twice
(I've written a poem
titled “Bone.”)
Feature article: Our
efforts to communicate with extraterrestrial life
(We can barely talk
nicely to other countries or the man across the street. What, we hope E.T. will
teach us how to be frickin' civil?)
What Ringo Starr has
been up to lately
(Drumming and flashing
the peace sign, right?)
Four cartoons, only one
of which I really “get.”
(I can draw better than
that.)
Obituaries of
noteworthy people
(Will I ever make that
list?)
The horoscopes for the
coming week
(“Aquarius: July 5th, Watch your
back – somebody wants to stab it.”)
Back cover ad for a
resort with incredible white sand, glowing blue water, and palm trees
(and if I knew for sure
the woman in the ad would be there, I damn well WOULD travel this summer,
buddy.)
…and I wonder
why my coffee went cold.
Michael A.
Griffith began writing poetry as he recovered from a life-changing injury. His
poems, essays, and non-fiction articles have appeared in many print and online
publications and anthologies. He resides and teaches near Princeton, NJ. His
first book of poetry is slated to appear later this year.
