Very quickly, E. Ethelbert Miller is becoming one of my preferred writers. He has such a deep respect and love for simplistic language. He has a gift of filling common expression with such passion, and for that, I find excitement inpassing his work on. If/when you find the time, dive into one of his books of poetry and prose. With warm regards ~Chezon
REBECCA
will i hate mirrors? will i hate reflections? will i hate to dress? will i hate to undress?
jim my husband tells me it won't matter if i have one or two two or one it doesn't matter he says
but it does i know it does
this is my body this is not south africa or nicaragua this is my body losing a war against cancer and there are no demonstrators outside the hospital to scream stop
there is only jim sitting in the lobby wondering what to say the next time we love and his hands move towards my one surviving breast
how do we convince ourselves it doesn't matter? how do i embrace my own nakedness now that it is no longer complete?
E. Ethelbert Miller is a poet and the author of five collections of poetry, including Where Are the Love Poems for Dictators? and most recently, Whispers, Secrets and Promises.
