The theme for this issue is “Light,” and the journal includes poetry, fiction, non-fiction, photos and artwork on this topic. The cover features candles. I first wrote this poem in The City of Light, Paris, in 2010, after visiting the Salvador Dali Museum. Dali has a number of depictions of the Icarus myth and I felt inspired to explore what would have happened if Icarus had a sister. I have revised this piece several times over the years and am so glad it found a home. The journal accepts work by women, has a small submission fee and donates to causes important to women, suicide prevention for this issue. Thank you, Emily Shearer and Kim Brown for publishing my poem!
