A contemporary American novelist and essayist known for her experimental, SMEAR, BY BRIAN EVENSON 3. Vessel, he whispered, please replace my helmet. The same chrome claw on a long pale arm plucked the helmet from the floor with surprising delicacy and pushed it back onto his head. When it was affixed, he looked again for the smear through the faceplate. CLOUD IN TROUSERS, BY VLADIMIR MAYAKOVSKY Conjunctions Online, November 12, 2013.

The price of a first-class stamp rose from fifteen cents to twenty that year, and a dozen eggs cost less than a buck. Ronald Reagan was inaugurated as president in January 1981, a couple of months before John Hinckley Jr. attempted to assassinate him. It was the year MTV started broadcasting, the year Andrew Lloyd Webber’s _Cats _debuted in London, the year the first space shuttle, _Columbia_, was launched. The AIDS virus was identified that year, Sandra Day O’Connor became the first female Supreme Court justice, and, for better or worse, Lady Diana Spencer became Diana, Princess of Wales. Three and a half-inch floppy disks, Jared Kushner, and the first American test-tube baby were born, as were Britney Spears, Skittles, and Post-it Notes. Frequent-flyer miles were introduced then, along with IBM PCs. Elias Canetti won the Nobel Prize in Literature, Rick James released “Super Freak,” _Raiders of the Lost Ark _topped the box office that same year when Hoagy Carmichael, Bob Marley, and Natalie Woodleft this world.
Nineteen eighty-one was also the year that Robert Creeley, Denise Levertov, Octavio Paz, Josephine Miles, Tennessee Williams, John Hawkes—all sadly deceased now—along with dozens of other writers, came together to contribute to the first issue of a literary journal called _Conjunctions_, a Festschrift in honor of James Laughlin, the venerable publisher of New Directions. Founded and edited by Bradford Morrow with the encouragement of poet and translator Kenneth Rexroth, _Conjunctions _has now published over one thousand writers, some at the beginnings of their careers, some avowed masters. Deemed a “living notebook” by its editor, _Conjunctions _continues to forge ahead some three decades after Bard College became its publisher, and four after it first saw the light of day.View Issue

_The Holographer_
by Julianna Baggott
I remember how, when we got word that it was okay to emerge, my parents opened the front door. My mother was holding an aluminum baseball bat, my father had a shovel. The three of us were in our hazmat suits. (Mine had grown a little taut. I was eleven years old and had gotten taller and rounder.) Our breaths were trapped in ourmasks.
How long had we been indoors? Time was hard to figure. It had been well over two years. But had it been three?May 19, 2021
_Two Poems_

his bright impatiens in their beds, apple trees, to which he earlier rose on his cane and leaned until among their snow blossoms alongside the bees, surrounded in floral-sweet fragrance, from where your father says, _And, no one wants you to be __bitter._

_Three Poems_
by Nancy Kuhl
Like the ancient glass marked with fleck and mottle. But O— her silver likeness. Long forsaken the mirror: the edges, now light moves straight through. Shrug or shudder.May 5, 2021
_Getting Out of Janesville_by Angela Woodward
Because they’re in Florida, their position on the terrace is glorified with a gigantic orange ball sinking into serene water, streamers of pink snaking along the blue, the whole thing so … so … validating? And the pelicans! “Look, dude! Pelicans!” “You can’t shout ‘Pelicans!’ every time we see pelicans. We’re in Florida, babe. There’s tons of pelicans.” “But that’s the point …” the equestrian’s former friendmuses.

_Burn Scars_
by Jaime Robles
Fire hurtles past on both sides bubbling black At the edges. He wakes to a solitary yellow line Glowing desolation. House truck dog are gone Evaporated into red sky and patchy earth, snags Decorate the darkness. Out of his scars grow Thin buds. Imperfect impermanent incomplete, He falls back as if falling into a pool, arms outApril 21, 2021
_The Parenthesis Hunter_ by Mikaël Gómez Guthart, Jesse L.
Anderson
Book thieves as well as purloiners of ancient maps and medieval spell books, whose superficially absurd tactics often belie a mastery of their skill, are both well-known and feared by booksellers and librarians. A list of the various methods and stratagems used to outwit an employee’s vigilance would be endless, and while vendors have certainly come up with more or less effective techniques to stem this scourge, the fact remains that to this day none has managed to catch even a single parenthesis hunter in the act.April 14, 2021

_Four Poems_
by Theodore Worozbyt Underneath the electric microscope frass gathered like a word no one could pronounce, or something children left in a cage. Sugar ants were gorging on the corpse of a cicada next to the front door. Soon four golden mounds were theirs, to carry back in their lemony bellies to the queen. I have a box of nine suns set on spikes, a pair of gray bags concealing speakers. I am your teacher, said the teacher, alone in a room. If there is a predicate to this.March 24, 2021

_Red Puncta: Poems_
by Jenny Xie
Of the foreground, we will not speak. Look past the blotted figures, the stiff line that parts glaucous air from ground’s teeth. Forfeit faces. Alight instead on the twine that screws hands together. Gelid landscape, chromatics at life’s edge, those pant bottoms burnishedto peasant gray.

_Articulate Body_
by Supritha Rajan
That death measures out the immeasurable—sands fused to a melted stream,the minutes
hardening to a glass paneagainst whose cool
we lean our heads and watch clouds unbutton to rain. And inked its quake on white.March 3, 2021
_From _The Hölderliniaeby Nathaniel Tarn
The roses never looked so good before we gained a dormant garden help. But roses burn in just one day of this appalling desert heat. An effervescent sun burning the roses as _I _ must wish it would inflameall
features of the abhorrent politicians plunging a nation into ruin ... and archaeology! We look in vain for faces from a human past.February 24, 2021
_Five Poems_
by Rae Armantrout
Then geese cycle madlyacross a pond
like Wile E. Coyote
three feet past the cliff—catch lift
and join the great migration.February 17, 2021
_Moving Out_
by Michael Holt
We’re coming home from school, walking up the hill, Marco in front, his head down, his hands buried in the pockets of his jeans, Laurel behind him, the collar of her shirt spilling out of her sweater like a tropical plant, then Samantha, agitated, as if struggling to free several birds from the snags in her hair, and finally Peter, our little brother, who lags behind us and sings: and all the people said what a shame that he’s deadFebruary 10, 2021
_The Deletionists_
by Barbara Leckie
Lev’s suit was neat and elegant, even when rumpled. In another life he might have been a priest rather than a civil servant and teaching meditation classes once a month at the community center. He had turned forty that year and often talked about retirement when he could dedicate himself to_ his practice_ full-time. They had met two years ago, after one of his classes, when Claire had asked him if he believed in reincarnation. She was interested, she said.February 3, 2021
_Tasseography_
by Kathleen Boland
It’s the day you get the letter. You get it at work. You leave work and walk to your building and it’s your door and it’s steel and it’s glass and it’s covered with half-smeared fingerprints and through its cloudy pane you see her face (yes, it’s her face, what other face but her face) and she’s holding open the door and she’s looking at you but you can’t look at her so you look at her lips and you think yes, of course, she has no lips, she has slivers, she has lines, she has a crevice, like someone realized they forgot something in her making and took a knife and sliced straight across above her jaw and yes of course her maw is just a black-blooded wound, just a dark slit that opens and gapes, and you’re shocked when it moves (look at it move) and it whispers: you slut.January 27, 2021
_When Drummers Drum_by Joanna Scott
Here we are, then, in a typical Mediterranean village, sometime between the end of the last world war and shortly before the next one begins. There’s no obvious reason to think trouble is imminent. In the eyes of an ordinary tourist, everything looks lovely: the colorful, lopsided buildings packed on hillsides above the sea, the slopes lined with abundant vineyards and olive groves, the flowery vines spilling over fences. How could anyone not be happy here?January 19, 2021
_Three Poems_
by Amanda Gunn
. . . a well-perfumed friend, wise both in the olfactory and in love, taught me to spray with economy, to wear scent as a private pleasure, evident only to a lover in kissing distance.January 11, 2021
_Hex_
by Shane McCrae
One’s opportunities to be unhappy are Unlimited. Or limited, but only by One’s own imagination, which is powerful But fragile, is defenseless, but is limited Only by things unseen. As Bark Psychosis did itMore
