Rock | Salt | Stone
Rosamond s. King
—
“There are many points in this poem where the conversation subtly moves towards the internal, then stirs into spaces of Out, brave and controversial. This collection closes with beautiful pieces that speak to the honest erotic with the backbone of Audre Lorde, while visiting awhile with the blunt, lower cased love of Lucille Clifton’s prose. Throughout the experience, you can find her stopping every few poems to enliven our senses. Likening sex to food such as “salt, white corn tortilla chips, for instance, or popcorn that is not overcome with butter;” while instructing on spells of irresistble love.” ~ Monifa Lemons, Sinister Wisdom
