Dear Traces community,
We’re excited to launch Issue 5 of Traces Journal this week. This issue includes poetry from both Canadian and International poets, as well as our first short fiction publication. Stay tuned over the next few weeks to see what we have in store!
New Poetry
New poetry by George Elliott Clarke, Jesse Keith Butler, Mary-Alice Thompson, Elijah Perseus Blumov, & Niall McGrath.
The Order of Love
“Speeches of the heart.”

Last time I wrote about language as a synonym for knowing. The critic Terry Eagleton has pointed out that language is more than a tool with meaning lying behind the words used. Language involves form, which at the very least implies tone, or a blend of intellectual and emotional content.
Happy reading,
The Traces team.
