Chronic Pain By Anna Boughtwood



Hope emerged unhoused,

Left no forwarding address.

Whereabouts unknown.



O, painsomnia!

It exhausts me to pretend-

Neuropathic night



You cannot reach me.

I observe- detached, atop

Spiraling staircase.


ABOUT:


Anna Boughtwood lives just over the Dunn Memorial Bridge from Albany. She often writes during bouts of painsomnia. Her writing has appeared in Dime Show Review, East Jasmine Review, and Hudson Valley Writers Guild. Follow her updates on Instagram @lotsa_livres.

MISSION STATEMENT 

© 2022-PRESENT by dipity literary magazine

Dipity Literary Magazine aims to shine a light on a wide array of underrepresented voices from different parts of the world including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, creators with disabilities, and also those from Instagram, or aspiring poets. We accept unpublished poetry of all styles i.e. haikus, art, prose, spoken audio, and short fiction stories. Short stories are the exception of previously published ones.  Additionally, we spotlight discovered unique writing styles through a bonus shares section and musicians who are supportive of the poetry world.  Dipity leverages visual morph art,  photography, and experimental digital collage work in each issue. Dipity values human kindness, exposing heartfelt truths, and taking time to have fun in writing while pushing traditional boundaries. You must write what you truly feel and release every slippery banana peel in this dimension.
