New Poem in Bellevue Literary Review's Themed Issue on "Taking Care"

EDITOR'S NOTE: This issue of Bellevue Literary Review is devoted to the theme of “taking care.” It went to press as hundreds of millions endured extreme heat, floods, wildfires, and dangerous air quality. Three years since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, we continue to redefine what “taking care” means for us as individuals but also as an interdependent collective. In this issue of BLR, you’ll read a variety of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction that explore the many facets of caregiving and how we care for one another, for ourselves, and for the world.  – Sarah M.
