Summer Of Love, Ronald Grossi Nov 2021

Summer Of Love, Ronald Grossi

The Tuxedo Archives

In 1967, with the news full of body counts from Vietnam and Sgt. Pepper playing on the radio, I got a call from my friend Larry saying “We gotta go see what’s happening in San Francisco.” It was the Summer of Love.


How To Bring Up Your Brother: An Authoritarian Guide For Older Sisters, Mary Morrison Nov 2021

How To Bring Up Your Brother: An Authoritarian Guide For Older Sisters, Mary Morrison

The Tuxedo Archives

My troubles first began when he arrived. I was 14 months old and my first look at my new baby brother told me he couldn't be real. I had to find out, so quietly, I moved my index finger to his face and into his eye, to see if he was real!

April, Stephanie Hendricks

The Tuxedo Archives

You might not know it by looking at her ­with her luxurious black curly fur, rust colored stockings and eyebrows, white paws, broad regal white chest, white muzzle and blaze and crowning tip of white fur on the tail, a tail that seems to be perpetual wagging, in a medium slow relaxed way, in an “I’m just hanging out and loving every moment of life,” an easy way kind of wag ­for most people not in the know would just look at her and say, she’s a dog, or she’s “just” a dog, or, in a rather frightened, anxious, way, …

7 Things You Learn As A First Semester Senior In College, Melanie Carlson

The Tuxedo Archives

1. Going out is fun! And exhausting.

You probably turned 21 within a year of starting senior year, and you probably took advantage of all of your newfound freedom. This was really exciting and fun at first, but after a while you just want a nap (and also to never see a vodka redbull again. Seriously, who thought those were a good idea?).


Mom's Gone, Peter Richmond Nov 2021

Mom's Gone, Peter Richmond

The Tuxedo Archives

The date is August 7, 1957. It’s hard to believe that almost six decades have passed, but a look at the calendar, not to mention the event’s subsequent loneliness, make it easy to confirm. A shrink would have a field day with this one! Actually, he did! You see, the date is the day my mother left this world—died, to be blunt. She was a victim of breast cancer. She lasted barely a year after a radical mastectomy was performed that was, only to the surgeon and my father, a sham waste of time performed mainly to make my mother …

Solve For X, Yvonne Bamba

“But I’m not good at math,” I tell my calculus teacher, hoping this explanation is enough for the big, red X splattered across the top of the pop quiz he hands back to me.


The Lady In The Red Brimmed Hat, Anna Sisler-Latta Nov 2021

The Lady In The Red Brimmed Hat, Anna Sisler-Latta

The Tuxedo Archives

There is a place where the road rises up just before descending into the hollow of Olema. Looking right, one can see the sheen of Tomales Bay sliding all the way north. The sad half light of the November afternoon gives the hills and fields a muted sepia tone like a photograph you might find in your grandmother’s attic.


The Fabric Of Time Myth, Bogie Bougas Nov 2021

The Fabric Of Time Myth, Bogie Bougas

The Tuxedo Archives

Back in the days of Ice and fog, on a cold and bitter morning, when the snow fell so high it blotted out the low rising sun, Time came down from the heavens as a naked lamb. “I am cold,” she said. “Who amongst you will weave me a garment strong enough to see me through these bitter days?”

(CAL enters. He passes JAKOB, pauses, then returns. He stands at the rail a short distance from JAKOB and looks out towards the city.)

CAL Nice night for it.

JAKOB What?

CAL I said, "Nice night for it".

JAKOB Whatever, man.

(CAL turns and looks back at the skyline, JAKOB resumes looking down into the water. After a moment.)

Some Things Remain, Deborah Aminifard

The Tuxedo Archives

It was raining the morning the trucks pulled up in front of their home, and the policemen, armed with rifles and batons, came to the front door. It was still dark when five year old Joanne, asleep in her bed, was awakened by loud pounding on the front door and a policeman shouting “ Maak julle oop!” in Afrikaans, “open up!” She listened as the policemen came in and began shouting at her mother, ordering her to gather her possessions, quickly, and put them on the truck. The door slammed shut and then there was silence. Joanne came out of …
