“The Dead Squirrel” in Zoetic Press

by Jeff Fleischer

The new Rituals issue of Zoetic Press Nonbinary Review is now out in both print and ebook form. My work has appeared in the magazine several times over the past decade, and this is the first time it’s a creative nonfiction piece.

An excerpt:

The squirrel looked frozen in place, flat on its back atop the bitter ground. Its rear legs splayed, its front paws raised as if in surprise, and all four sets of claws pointed to the sky. Its elongated front teeth protruded from the lips, and its fully open eyes suggested it saw how it died.
