Vikki C. Inheritance How did we learn it without the rooms we first imagined? The blue nursery to draw first breath, a cradled small saint, before the dark corridor led us to the spiced chamber and its troubles. We’re still searching our way out. A thread between you and the next love, as though myth has animated every statue. When you gesture from that forsaken atria, I can edge near as any temperate season. Its rosehips and peonies in the mind, unprepared for a sudden flood. Who walks on crimson water still remains unproven. I travel against the mourning tide, gather my belongings, and the bald islands you chart are no longer visible. Sometimes, I catch my Mother’s tongue, its sharpness disturbing this thick, glossy lake. A corpse attracts fish, like its duty to nourish, and all the invisible life below never goes hungry. How do I recite such act in one part, on calved limbs meant for kneeling? Do we leave in pieces, or not at all? The air darkens, the waters silver. The thread is most taut, ready to pull us over. Yet here we are—resisting.
"How did we learn it without the rooms we first imagined?"
'Inheritance' – the second poem of mine in Rawhead Journal's 'Bloody Bones' Special issue #1.
My thanks to EIC John T. Leonard.

Reliable Narrator It is in the telling as much as the young mother stitching the fabric of a story to her child’s name. Fathers debate what makes the collection acceptable. That it must row itself cooly towards a lesser grief. My mentor coins the narrative a slow breakup. The complimentary flowers on the motel bed where the beloved betrayed every Sunday. Where faith doesn’t come easy to a preacher. Because poems possess—part angel or animal. What approaches, soon backs away into rearview —tinted and broken. On the wrong highway, you imagine skin around the found bones. The poems honour — they cloak and embalm, filter toxins and perfume the dying. A river is never far from a casualty, and pages lily and lantern, but refuse to float in one place. Because the current keeps moving with your tongue, lapping as language and dragonfly burr, the arabesque of a manuscript keeps the reader from drowning. It’s how we hear through whiplash and sirens—the opaline lake and its dropped oar; the body’s duty replaying the nectar of this world.
Honoured to have two new poems out today in @rawheadjournal.bsky.social 's 'Bloody Bones' Special Issue #1.
My thanks to EIC John T. Leonard for including my work alongside many wonderful writers 🔥
