A Night To Remember
by
Elyssa Tappero
hand in hand they go
to Atlantic grave sinking
for she will not leave;
“as we lived, so we shall die”
together, never parted
Elyssa Tappero is a queer pagan who writes prose and poetry about mental illness, queerness, spirituality, and how it feels to be alive for the end of the world (which is not great).
