Texas A&M's Official Literary Journal
The Eckleburg Project is the official undergraduate literary journal of Texas A&M University. We are an undergraduate organization featuring student poetry, prose, and art. Now with thirteen issues under our belt, we started with the idea that art should be free and easily accessible to the community.
Our staff is composed of undergraduate students and editors who select pieces to be published semesterly under a process of blind review. For information on how to join, go to our apply page. For information on how to submit, go to our submissions page. For general inquiries, or just to say hello, contact our organizational email at theeckleburgproject@gmail.com.
As always, we thank you for your support as we continue to foster art here at Texas A&M.
They say that we are all made of stardust,
and yet, here I am,
me, in all my starriness and dust,
watching another cosmic miracle
work the counter at Wendy’s
while our fellow impossibility
(who sprang from the galaxy
like Aphrodite sprang from the sea)
turns red with anger
over a missing Diet Coke.
