As Americans,

by Dezmond Davanti

Cloudbursting in
a flyover state; no, we cannot
even stare at the sky for too
long without trying
to destroy it.

With short stories and poems appearing in Transients Mag, Urban Pigs Press, Fevers of the Mind and
Jazz House Publications, Steering 22, and FromOneLIne anthologies, Dezmond Davanti is currently
working on a poetry chapbook.
