"Friar Laurence said too much honey is loathsome in its deliciousness. My Juliet tooth: it won’t taste excess."

Poetry by Caitlin Cowan
"I Wish You Were Dead"

The sounds were skin-like and frantic. There were whole collections for cloth-tearing, female orgasm, people sitting in chairs. I would’ve liked any of those better.

We acknowledge that our Tallahassee offices at Florida State University are located on the ancestral and traditional homelands of the Apalachee Nation, the Muscogee Nation, the Miccosukee Tribe of Florida, and the Seminole Tribe of Florida. We pay respect to their tribal members past and present, to their descendants, and to all Indigenous peoples.

We recognize that this land was forcibly taken from these Indigenous peoples and altered through settler colonial violence and dispossession, and we recognize that simply acknowledging this isn’t enough. We will seek out ways that we can support advocacy for Indigenous people and better honor the relationships these Indigenous Nations maintain with this land. If you have suggestions of advocacy resources we can help share or other actions we can take, please email our Editor.
