We as Bird & Branch
I unwanted wings unfilled
and marrowless. You
hollowboned twisting
limbs and trunkrot,
echo from empty
ashen bark. Wasted days
wreathing into holes,
rooting in each other.
Wasted away, wanting
deadleaves or anything
closer to the ground.

Chloe Forsell is a junior at SUNY Geneseo, double majoring in French and English (creative writing). She hails from a town that, if drawn to scale on a map of New York State, might resemble a fingernail hugging the edge of Lake Erie. Chloe likes to spend her time making Spotify playlists and cooking foods that she doesn’t really know how to cook. Her post-grad plans are largely undetermined.
