Issue four: poem by Gabriella Ekman
This line "And around my bonethin throat, night
wrapped tight like a kettle" - It is wonderful. I also like the humor in this poem, the rheumatic cat, the mother's comment about interior design struck me as sinister and amusing in equal parts.
Love the track of this poem. Well wrought and canny.
Very beautiful and haunting!
The words creep under your skin
and do not leave you.
