FICTION: Aftermath (Part 1 of 2), by Joy Kennedy-O'Neill

Things seem almost back to normal--there is no smoke on the horizon, the barricades have been removed, and grass and bluebonnets grow on the side of the road. There are birds singing, red-tailed hawks catching the thermals, and the buzzards are only devouring roadkill. It's just a possum. Everything is fine.

POETRY: Tesla's Waltz, by WC Roberts
