Voices from the Margins
I am a churchman wh0 believes the church despite its flaws is a privileged place to grow and nurture ones faith. Unfortunately for many it is a place of hurt and exclusion. Here I offer an invitation for those living on the margins to share their voice, be it in the form of story, lament, prayer or poetry. All submissions will be considered. To submit a contribution for consideration please use the email address listed below. I only ask that you include your name (or initials)

Turn up the tv just to drown out the traffic
Just another box on the to-do list,
New lace chafes.
Shit. let out an unconvincing tremble.
Dead weight. he's finished.
Nothing tastes as good as wanted feels.
