Written by Jenny Stein   

So drop your pages upon my sheets
Folded half, like a bill paid,
For all my twisted black heat.
Though I secretly dream you stayed
Your words are my only fee
For laying yourself bare in me
And pretending I didn't see
All that you're afraid to be.

About the Author

Jenny Stein is a writer/artist/photographer/activist/bum currently located in Los Angeles. She lives in a basement apartment where she gets to watch bad shoes walk by all day. She is a self-professed bibliophile that enjoys fiery debates, people watching, and making friends with bums. Her favorite place to be is the subway, where you can get proposed to by a religious whacko, hear witty repartee between two bums, and win a debate with a stranger without speaking a word.

She dreams of traveling spontaneously for absolutely no reason. If she can keep her friends laughing when she's 99.9 years old then she will consider herself a success. Cheese is awesome.

Jenny is also the Sexuality Editor and Funny Grrrls Editor for Empowerment4Women. You can e-mail her at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Orna Ben-Shoshan: Artist Statement

As an auto-deduct artist, my work is not attached to any particular location or timeframe, and it’s free from any familiar set of rules. My creation is a medium of transferring knowledge about things that are beyond linear time and thinking.

It is said that observing metaphysical art induces lucidity and reduces stress. Many people who view my artwork comment that they can deeply connect to what they see, even though they do not necessarily understand it. In others it simply evokes positive and uplifting feelings as they are influenced by it subconsciously.
