The Bird That Flew with One Wing
Sometimes love turns a blind eye, the seasons of a life go missing. What does loss take from us, threaten to give back? Not every crucifix is a bloodbath. The webbed fantasies of the night hold high heels, boot spurs, can memorize money then spit. Are there people who sailed away? What will happen when a woman refinds the skin that has been peeled from her, slides back into your dark water? The poems in this collection explore love, loss, emptiness, spirit, our challenge to become wing perfect and fly.
