Lucky Fish by Aimee Nezhukumatathil

5.0

I have fallen in love with Aimee Nezhukumatathil; her gorgeous poems flow with the pulse of life--love, pregnancy, child-bearing, child-raising, and the agonizing anticipation of death. Each poem tells an intriguing story--sometimes the title alone ("The Mascot of Beavercreek High Breaks Her Silence," "Suppose You Were a Moray Eel")--about little girls growing up near a mental asylum or a tower in India where birds feed on the dead.

Every poet should read "Birth Geographic."
