The 2014 Volume 1 issue of Crab Creek Review is here!

The 2014 Volume 1 issue of Crab Creek Review is here!

It's here, and it's gorgeous. We are so proud. This issue is our first as new Co-Editors. Creating an issue is truly a labor of love and learning. Huge amounts of both. And now here it is, 2014 Volume 1, filled with great poems, fiction, and non-fiction, and the results of our 2013 Poetry Contest. 

We think you'll love it; we sure do.

Today we feature the work of Faith Allington:

Early harvest

of strawberries as I bathe,

ripe as blood

on my lips.

It was buy one, get one free

at the market.

This is the pound

that I didn't pay for,

balanced on a ledge

over water.
