Spindle is an online literary magazine with a twist, featuring creative non-fiction, poetry and short fiction by, for and about New Yorkers -- literal and spiritual. Showcasing emerging writers, artists, musicians and other notable New Yorkers, it offers a multi-faceted look at New York City and the world beyond through the eyes of both those who love it and hate it, and in many cases, a peek inside the minds of the people themselves.

Like New York City, Spindle is best experienced with an open mind and a healthy dose of intellectual curiosity. There are no tour guides here, so readers are encouraged to take their time and casually explore the site, whether a section at a time, via the "related article" links, or by doing a keyword search.

Thanks for reading!

Published in : , Poetry


Remembering, you rise…
not as steam from subway grates
but lions’ breath,
ravenous in the winter air.
 
Remembering, I’m rapt…
not at the cave of Midtown Tunnel
but hot hands gone
spelunking in the back seat.
 
Remember you wild…
not ivy climbing the Arsenal
but spooked horse
tearing up the bridle path.
 
Remembering you, I see…
not beer bottles smashed in streets
but bits of sparkling amber
where you stood.

 


Lynn Patmalnee is a born-and-bred Jersey Girl living her lifelong dream of having a Tilt-A-Whirl in her backyard in Keansburg, NJ, and her heart still beats a bit faster every time she crosses into Manhattan. As Lynn Crystal, she can be heard throughout the five boroughs and beyond as host of WFDU-FM's long-running Carnival of Song radio show.
