Before we get to Love and God, We of the Showbear Family Circus write with a heavy heart to tell you that the author of these three poems, Jonathan Dowdle, passed from this life between acceptance and confirmation of terms. There was an 8-month delay. We learned 10 days ago that the reason for the […]

Greeting the New Year
Melissa Johnson over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::
Large shapes shy and neigh on the edges of our circle. An outline across the flames is you, beneath blankets, unwilling to face night’s sure vast loss. Morning’s approach is less heard than felt. A silent crescendo, a change in the air, a long breathless sigh. The horses, knowing dawn, further range. Then I see, […]

Locket
Sante Matteo over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::
She untied the bundle and started to leaf through the papers. Something small fell out and clinked on the table. She recognized it. It was the locket she had given him when he left for Africa. She tried to open it, but it was stuck. She banged it on the table to loosen the clasp […]

Sloppy Grows
Mariam Ahmed over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::
Cluttered stalls line the market streets And merchants lift up their offerings with both hands Knowing they have the public in their palms. What used to be shunned as a practice of the unrefined – Now exalted as the height of morality and health. All those hours spent in brightly lit bulk warehouses Are now […]

Pomegranate Wine
Paul Van Sickle over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::
I arrived in New Orleans’s muggy dawn haze to see a team of men spraying last night’s vomit into the chunky gutters of Bourbon Street. Mucus water rushed down the drains like my romantic hopes for the city, leaving behind a beery stench and your troubled narrator, puzzled over where to begin. Following the example […]

The Existentialist Starter Kit
Con Chapman over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::
It was a dark and stormy night when we received the late-night call that every parent of a college student dreads. “Dad,” my son said, struggling to present a brave front in the face of the disaster that had apparently befallen him. “Yes?” “I’ve become an existentialist.” I gulped, covered my eyes with my hand, and shook […]

Harvest, 1992
Pauletta Burgeis over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::
A muddy irrigation ditch, a few solitary power lines and an occasional pole barn were all that interrupted the otherwise tedious repetition of flat cropland. This was fly-over country. Today however Ms. Watson’s fifth grade class, with their shouts of excitement and disbelief from the open windows of the old school bus, ruptured the monotony. […]
