KZine was started in August 2012 to showcase the work of local artists. Submissions of poetry, photography, essays, short stories, and any type of art are always welcome. I am starting to branch out in the subject matter of each issue. I am also revisiting papers, essays, and other pieces that I have written in college as subject matter for some

issues. KZine is an ever-evolving zine, but it will always be centered around the arts, making our voices heard, and dealing with current issues that seem to be swept under the rug by the majority of the population. Several regular back-issues of KZine are currently available, as well as The Music Issue, a special edition, and two issues of KZine Micro, and an issue of KZine Mini. The latest issues are available at www.etsy.com/shop/kmhPhotoAndDesign.

Granted, I can't find the song,
I can't locate that specific tune.
Yet, it continues on in my mind.
If I had a spirit,
I know it would possess such cadence
As an anthem.

So why, now,
Should this define
The path ahead
And the condition of the road
To be traversed?

I just need the time
To rest--truly rest--
With these thoughts on reality.

There's no way I can move on
Productively
In spite of the acid in my belly.
It will eventually tear away
The levels of defense
That I've built up,
And I'll be back at the start
Of this struggle.

I don't have enough left in me
To do this again.

I just need to rest.
TRULY rest.

I can't find much solace
In a world that diminishes the fight in someone
Who deserves to win.

The world truly means nothing
When, ultimately, it's all for naught.

What's the point of any of it
When we know we'll eventually just succumb?

I know there's a lesson in here somewhere,
A slice of life gold to which to cling,
But it hasn't been unearthed just yet.

This is legitimately the ultimate religious deconstruction song and the experiences therein. S**t.

The rest of the album is pretty fu**in' rad, too.

PANCAKE by Tori Amos

I'm not sure who's fooling who here
As I'm watching your decay
We both know you could deflate
A seven hurricane
Seems like you and your tribe
Decided you'd rewrite the law
Segregate the mind
From body, from soul
You give me yours, I'll give you mine
'Cause I can look your god right in the eye
You give me yours, I'll give you mine
You used to look my god right in the eye
I believe in defending
In what we once stood for
It seems in vogue
To be a closet misogynist homophobe
A change of course in our direction
A dash of truth spread thinly
Like a flag on a pop star
On a Benzodiazapene
You give me yours, I'll give you mine
'Cause I can look your god right in the eye
You give me yours, I'll give you mine
You used to look my god right in the eye
Oh Zion please
Remove your glove
And dispel every
Trace
Of his spoken word
That has lodged
In my vortex
I'm not sure who's fooling who here
As I'm watching our decay
We both know you could deflate
A seven hurricane
You could have spared her, oh but no
Messiahs need people dying in their name
You could have spared her, oh but no
Messiahs need people dying in their name
You say, "I ordered you a pancake"
You say, "I ordered you a pancake"
