Niamh - Prose


Amy - Online rose

The mask of identity can veil or unveil the soul.

Ever-changing or stagnant, the writers in this issue explore

the river of our magical human essence.

They unwrap the tangles of identity to reveal its complexity,

and merge the real with the fantastical,

creating a juxtaposition

between the beauty of life and its harsh realities.

They explore the fragility of identity,

which can crack and dissolve with a single prick of pain,

whilst uncovering its power,

when identity remains a fortitude amidst disarray.

In this issue, the magical fabrication of humanity is divulged.


Gareth - Poetry

Time and magic dance together both

intangible but ever-present

existing upon our insistence.

Issue twenty-two has temporality woven into memory by a scribe of writers,

futures unlived and childhoods retread

The natural and arcane traversed across triptychs.

The liminal paths that guide us through the sublime invisible

are narrated by disembodied voices.

It’s in these spaces that magic decolonises dreamscapes and enervates the exile.

The recurrence of cadence across each piece

spirals inwards,

a nautilus soaked in the rainbow ochre of creation and decay.
