Kinlight: Homegrown Poems

A handful of heartland in these narrative free verse by author and artist, Polly Alice McCann. These poems speak with a uniquely deep-rooted voice. What do women need to become visible? she asks. "Light and the ability to imagine growth, --nothing is more powerful. There is always time to change direction if we believe in walking over the broken shards of glass to the other side." Polly's lyrical poems, explore faith, loss, and the measures a woman might take to rise up: "I will not forget," she writes. "I am woman, all things began in me." Ghosts and vapors; flour and light-- her imagery remains subtle in color but dives into bone and marrow of one woman's journey in today's America. For more work by this author, read her second book of poems, Tea with Alice.
