商品簡介
The incandescent poems in Once explore violence, loss, and recovery. Invoking both the personal and the civic self, they chart uncertain new beginnings in a shattered nation. What emerges is both a poignant meditation on a daughter's relationship with her mother and a citizen's relationship to her country.
from "Frontier"
?????. . . At times,
?????I felt sick, intoxicated
?????by BPA and mercury.
?????At other times I fasted and the stars
?????stumbled clear from the vault.
?????Up there, the universe stands around drunk.
?????I hope the Lord is kind to us,
?????for we engrave our every mistake . . .
