Strait-Jacket and Padded Cell From WTP Vol. VII #6 Late one night I was stitching up a young schizophrenic man in a locked ward. It was a long but superficial wound: he had got hold of a broken bottle and had slashed his left forearm. It was the commonest injury in the hospital, at least,…

Scenes from Childhood: 1965 From WTP Vol. VII #6   This is the Bronx, and you will find beauty here only unexpectedly.

From WTP Vol. VII #5 Devoted By Eric Maroney “Tis too much proved—that with devotion’s visage And pious action we do sugar o’er The devil himself.”–Shakespeare Or sits and writes at the table and often turns her gaze toward the clouds congealing in the heat bubbling above her like a milky copula. The clouds arrive,…

From WTP Vol. VII #4 Go Boom By Elizabeth Hamilton If you’re a woman and you want to join the U.S. Army, the first thing the recruiter at the Army Recruiting Office in Dallas will tell you is to drive across the city to talk with the Air Force guys. The Army won’t turn you…

From WTP Vol. VII #3 Large Anthropomorphic Canary By Salvatore Difalco The only failure is not trying. That’s what I believe. And I have not been afraid to fail. Ask my agent. She knows. At least I think she knows.   But in many respects, as I explained to my agent last time she answered…

From WTP Vol. VI #7 Sisters By Robert Klose If all the Russians in my small Maine town were planets, then Galina Sergeivna would be the star they orbited. In good times and bad, in joy or need, she was their center, their stillpoint. Nothing they said or experienced could surprise her. Having survived the…
