Abstract

As the Cease-Fire Holds Victoria McArtor (bio) Black has the advantage of two rooks & a bishop. When I’m losing, the best moves leave me still losing & white folds to improbable dawns. As soon as I’m leading the tenor changes. There’s analytics in the way of my sensationalism for spring. The breeze pulls itself out the window & the light pours in suddenly, hiding us completely. You could call this erasure, all these storms coming in, all this color letting go. [End Page 79] Victoria McArtor Victoria McArtor lives near Oklahoma State University, is a member of Mutual of Omaha’s Honor Club, and serves on the Board of Camp Fire, a nonprofit organization focused on building leadership skills and social responsibility.
