We wear our traumas
the way the guillotine
wears gravity.
Out lovers' necks
are so soft.
-- Andrea Gibson 'Gravity'
I asked my local library to buy 'The Madness Vase' by Andrea Gibson, and they did. I didn't have the money to buy it when I saw Andrea at Wellesley College. This is a good thing, not only will I have the chance to read her powerful new poems, but others in my area will have the chance to get to know her poetry, too.
