Honorable Mention
The Last Quadrille
Michael Julius Sottak

Moxie, this is Miss South China Sea.
Miss China Sea, meet Moxie.
They eye each other as women often do.
The jealousy is palpable.
The moon lifts a wary eye.
The wind defers.

Last night Miss China knocked Moxie on her butt,
her skirts flew up in wild frothing wind
as she spun on her keel and ran.

Tonight they stare at each other, determined.

Let the dance begin.

The moon ducks beneath the clouds.
The stars go away. From the safety of darkness,
the wind blows a shroud-whistling song.

Moxie wants her finest attire.
Johann winks, let's run up her staysail.

She slices through Miss China
on a mad midnight run,
pitching, rolling, snorting
like a wild horse.
The only things visible
are green fireflies
laughing in her wake.
