Time Must Wait 
By Crispin Oduobuk
(Nigeria)

 All of Forneeso has heard that Assak’s daughter is dead, and that "he sacrificed her, you know, that Awakening thing of his."

A Dark Place

By Andrew McKenna
(Australia)

A great whistling filled the night as bombs rained down. The Americans were dropping incendiaries, and much of Tokyo was built of rice paper and wood.

The Donkey-Man
 By Mohammad Nasrullah Khan 
& Marlene Amero
(Pakistan/Canada)

There were two cows, three goats, one mare, one donkey, one dog, and one Hussani, who I thought was also an animal. 

Face Value
By Anjana Basu
 (India)

(Peru)

Two Poems
By Odi Gonzales
(Peru)
