Kate Kearns reads "TO THE MAN IN LINE FOR TACOS WHO ISN'T BRIAN" from issue 22.
from "flannery o’connor and i go bowling"
by Maria Zoccola

from "Self Portrait"
by Samantha Samakande
December coming out the rear / of the worst blizzard to drop / by the east coast in years the yawning / door a snare of a mouth collecting / lookers like the white gunks
from "On the Drive Down"
by Jeremy Rock
I’ve resolved never / to meet these houses away from the road for fear // they’d try to keep me, so I hold an even sixty-two / in a fifty-five and watch the pawn shops fade
from "Portrait of my brother with his habit"
by Kiyoko Reidy
like a cartoon / he traced his wants onto air / and they solidified, he drew windows / on his arms and they filled in with stars, / black holes the size of a needle’s / point,
ABOUT SUGAR
Sugar House Review is an independent, 501(c)(3) nonprofit poetry publisher based out of Utah. Our mission is to promote an eclectic range of poets through publishing and live events to build nationally connected literary communities and foster the literary arts in Utah. We are excited to be some of the first people to see your work and to help the best of that work become available to a larger audience.
Sugar was founded in 2009 by John Kippen, Nano Taggart, Jerry VanIeperen, and Natalie Young. At the time, it was the only independent, print poetry journal in Utah. Our name is based on both our location and desire to publish sticky, heart-racing, sweet, sweet addictive poetry. Sugar House is a neighborhood within Salt Lake City, named after the sugar beet factory of the Deseret Manufacturing Company (1851–1855).
