E2K: a journal for the new literary paradigm

I don't know anything about quality or worth.
About the weightiness of a stream of thought.
What is the poundage required to weigh down the trawl?
To secure certainty?
To dam infinity?
To flood the gates?
What does it take?

I threw a pebble into the stream.
The waters parted -
The piranha cut into my dream.

Whose flesh are they devouring?
Who oars this trireme?
