LGBTQ+ Poem: i like terracotta and stoneware, by Holly Rowsell

best descriptor
not quite the same – molded
and shaped each other
yet remained
malleable and the grooves
kinda remain and are added
onto as time passes
as we change
and grow
as people? also thank you
for the journal! i’ll tell
you my favourite poem
via letter six
months from now
