ICYMI, "last psalm" is a poem in our 🌟January 2026 issue🌟 by @ph-low.com about skeletons and harpists and how systems of power sanctify cruelty. Read this one for its strong voice and spooky ambience havenspec.com/poetry/last-...

An excerpt of the poem "last psalm" by P.H. Low, in Issue 21 of Haven Spec Magazine (January 2026). The text reads:

that you might be appeased by one such as me.
that, smug on your garnet altar,
you would unhinge your jaws
and drink wetly of my fear,
as a thousand mahogany harps
tremble beneath your altar
and ten thousand haunted skeletons
writhe your praise.

The background is the issue's cover art, titled Pile, by Aimee Cozza. It shows a figure with blood around their mouth and on their neck and chest, cuddling a pack of wolves.

I'm furious because, once again, someone thought that this was a good place to dump a house wyvern! Why can't people be responsible and surrender them to a shelter? Just because it says "sky" does not make turbines safe. The blades can cut dragon scale! House wyverns can't even fly that high!

the boys started arguing about whose turn on the ATV and it’s so hard now to gather now with all the babies in the AV room but Uncle Davey is upset no one wants to see this footage—back from when they were younger than you are now—then when He held the camcorder in smoother hands—and he presses play and pixels tide across the screen—small children wave and shade their eyes against the light—and then so soon it’s over, everyone gets up but Aunty Cindy lies on the couch, the light in her eyes, repeating “Play it again! Don’t you—”
