Sweetly funny and surreal, a pair of dreamlike micros by Mathieu Cailler: “Four of a Kind” and “My Evening with Marilyn” in -ette Issue 5. Don’t you wish life was really like this?

Watercolor of a peach pie with a missing slice. Text: Langston Hughes, Pablo Neruda, Lucille Clifton, and Dylan Thomas moved into the house next door. One evening, a few days after they got situated, I baked a peach pie and brought it over. -Mathieu Cailler, -ette review, spring 2025

For the music, this time I did some stripped-down piano cues. For the second interstitial, right after Jessica Barlevi's piece and interview, I recast the theme music in the guise of a famous short piano piece. Anyone got it?

“Convinced she was encoding words for only me to read, in urine or lemon juice, I purchased a black flashlight. In the bathroom, lights switched off, her papers glowing violet. ‘Sincerely’ apparently intended sincerely.”

I’ve got flash fiction “Stuck” in this fine journal. Check it out. Also, I’m interviewed on Pod—ette. I’m speaking slightly too fast but I say where the story came from and how I’m writing into this political time.
