New Poetry by Wallis Stern ‘raptor’
brutally, I will miss it our innocent bloodletting your busy handsome fingers casually blasé but playing heated games of yes and no whispering I want you take me against the wall take me with a secret gesture take me speeding on the freeway take me teasing talking dirty take me bathed in sweetness take me […]
What Makes a Woman Sexy?
It is the burning question on every burning lip nowadays. These are the results of an exhaustive survey. Serious students may wish to take notes. What makes a woman sexy: It is a matter of taste, spread out like a picnic; it unravels in stages like a blossoming open; it is all full moon and […]
The Yom Kippur Passion
Aaron and Sylvie Stern had a secret. They had a fine house and a trim lawn, they had social standing, they had a sterling country club. They even had a nice credit rating, but with all this they had a secret, too, and one day it sought expression. Secrets do that, like great love affairs […]
Silence is Not a Virtue
Silence is NOT a virtue. I don’t know much about life but I know a lot about love. I don’t know how to split atoms, I don’t split body from mind, but I’ve split many infinitives and I split my gut laughing. O hell, I’ve been splitting fine hairs with tradition for years. I don’t […]
When Rachel Sang the Blues
The first time I saw Rachel she was singing the blues, she was outgrowling Eartha Kitt, she was crooning full mouthed blue dirt and funk, a caterwaul strain like a siren.

She Was Always My Sister
For Mary Helen Lynch (12.1.47-1.27.2011) “Real art has the capacity to make us nervous.”–Susan Sontag Inspired by Robin Lowey’s moving essay about the late great Lynnly Labovitz, together with Vicki Randle’s piece about so charming and alarming a “warrior woman” as Lynnly clearly was, I determined to honor Mary and bear witness to her most […]
This is Not My Body
For Mary H. Lynch (12.1.47-1.27.2011) And you were always my sister… This is not my body, this frozen ground; no, my body is a field of flowers waking. This is not my body, this drifting wood; my body is a splitting sea, all brine magic and wingspan. Not mine, not mine, this haunted ruin that […]
Who is Ms. Wonderful?
She probably already lives in your very own building. She is always smiling in your direction—or haven’t you noticed?—walking her heavily betesticled mucho masculine dog. You certainly have noticed in passing her tall dark and handsome sartorial elegance. You avert your eyes in the hallway, you show no apparent interest. You dare not even make […]
The Love Childe Wallis Stern
AMO ERGO SUM I love, therefore I am. I awoke this day alone to a nameless longing so deep it took my breath away and drew tears. It was a thought of you so close and animal strong like a scent in the open wind, like a bold rhythmic straddle, like a swell, like a […]
