From the Book - First edition.
Portrait of a face at forty
The first essay is to prove to you that I have a childhood
When they come for me
The hands that held me
Young girls they do get weary
Yaka
Becoming a liar
Tehuti
The quiet before
Take two for pain
Like a war
This is what happens
What it feels like
Beauty in the breakdown
It has a name
Side effects may include
Life sentence
As hopeless as smoke
The day before
We don't wear blues
Some days are fine
When we bleed
Searching for magic.
