The Shore Issue 31 — Autumn 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dear Friends of The Shore, I hope everyone enjoyed their summer season and is excited to settle into the cozy chill of autumn! Our new issue might just be our most varied one yet with sentient phone booths, ponds of blooming algae, a slip and slide, hazmat suits, gold eggs, and the absence of shine. Within these poems you may still spend time in the muggy days of an east coast summer, find your way into dry plains, on mountainsides covered in fog, the streets of cities, and everywhere in between
