A unique and profound metaphysical mesh of womanist passion, esoteric vision, and social history. The artistry here nearly elevates the poem to a self-contained world deftly defined and sustained by its own myths and traditions. Good poetry can pull off that kind of magic and adds to the reason for celebrating National Poetry Month. Much gratitude for this very fine read and for all of your ground-breaking literary marvels.
