Black Salt, Lakenhia M. Gould Apr 2006

Black Salt, Lakenhia M. Gould

English Theses & Dissertations

This collection of poems explores the anticipated reality against that which is real in my world. These poems defy the normal explanations of life in order to explore what it means to be a woman—more specifically a black woman who was raised in a single parent home. I took on the characteristics of my mother, whether I desired to or not; I took in her salt and seasoned myself with her sweet sometimes, sour flavor.

Prairie Suite: A Celebration, Twyla Hansen, Paul A. Johnsgard Jan 2006

Prairie Suite: A Celebration, Twyla Hansen, Paul A. Johnsgard

Paul Johnsgard Collection

25 poems by Twyla Hansen, with illustrations by Paul A. Johnsgard, including:

Walk on the Prairie

There is mystery here, in the shapes of grass,
in the dim movements of an inland sea,
connections to an earlier time. Wander barefoot,
hypothesize the dance of millennia, the unbearable
carvings of the built environment, this ragtag escape.

Let its divine simplicity ooze into your pores.
Comb the steel from your hair, blanket your
tongue with orange. Your breathing will slow.
Breathing slow, unbutton the child within.
Give her permission to go fly a kite.
