Oh sure, we are scared,
scared to death
of its power
to ...
... rend the veils of illusion,
to take reality and smash it
like a mirror struck dead on center
with a flying fist;
to feed a lifetime's worth
of terror, brain entrainment
into a shredder in an instant,
make it all disappear,
makes the fear disappear
and there is nothing left
but will,
pure,
simple,
honest,
just this once,
honest,
just for this moment,
I am honest,
this is how I feel.
Mary Angela Nangini's poems celebrate the richness of life and love. From the city to cottage-country and the roads in between, Nangini explores the changing seasons of her varied region. (This book will soon be reprinted in hard cover.)
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
