Zine crafted under a full moon, autumn 2021. photo by Ada McCartney

i keep time by the moon because my body does. already tomatoes are small green fists taking evening water while the cat keeps watch and i walk the block planting zine seeds in free libraries.
she rises, remember: story is survival.
