A Stranger's Tear

“Welcome to our replacement issue. No, it doesn’t replace another issue: it’s a brand-new look at people or things replaced by others. We have one sinister wish-giver substituted for another, shells for hearts, beloved for beloved, and a ghost review. Our poets bring us ballast and wings, fabric and crumbs, carving, recleansing, and alien dissemblance. And to start things off, our artists present Faces Replaced.”
