From our December 2025 issue Utility Bill with Ants by Sean Wang In our small flat the sockets hum along the floor and ants patrol plaster seams toward the crumbs where we argue in undertones. I am afraid he will pour more of us into your phone, screenshots and side comments, so I stack your expensive books into a wall, as if paper could cool the wiring. The rice cooker waits on warm, steam pressing its face to the lid, while the bills shine on the table, columns of water and light beside your trading app, its glow a small furnace fed by other people's fear. You c all it survival and scroll. I live inside that murmur, taps and screens and the slow black thread of ants in the grout until a heavy nothing steps in from the air, leans between my ribs and lays me down on the hardwood. (line breaks may be altered in the text due to the limitations of technology -- line breaks in graphic are as intended by the poet) Sean Wang is a PhD student with work in West Trade Review, Wild Roof Journal, ONE ART, and Broadside Series. He’s on Instagram at @sean_wang1997. #altText #poetry #poem #poetryzine Utility Bill with Ants by Sean Wang In our small flat the sockets hum along the floor and ants patrol plaster seams toward the crumbs where we argue in undertones.

Happy two-and-a-half weeks into the New Year! The theme of issue four was “Yuan-Wang: To Wish”. Amidst the flurry of resolutions that emerge year after year, we hope you’ll use this issue to reflect on the intentions behind the checklist. Why do we aspire for the changes we do? As the sole editor who cobbled issue four together, (albeit slowly—thank you for your patience!) a part of my New Year’s resolution was to be more appreciative—including towards Yin. Because it truly is a joy to be able to witness every artist’s passion, and genuinely, I am grateful for each and every submitter—from over 30 countries and 40 states!!—who have made Yin what it is today. Thank you to everyone who has interacted or contributed to an issue in 2025, and lets celebrate even more creators together in 2026 <3 Love, Sophia (Yin’s caffiene-addicted EIC)
