Art by SmokeLong Quarterly
Feathers in the road look only like feathers at first, and then like birds, and finally like two geese killed crossing together. But their bodies are not yet held—there is something still animate about the way their wings stick out at angles and keep catching the air. As though they’ve hit the ground but are still falling. Like violence unfinished.
