Haruko/Love Poems
by June Jordan
emotional
reflective
medium-paced
I bought this collection at the start of the year after having it on my list for quite some time. Some of the poems I was familiar with, but different to read them amidst the pages of poems I had never seen or heard before. Truly a brilliant collection, the love she speaks of if palpable, what it would be like to be the individual referenced in any one of these pieces.
“These poems
they are things that I do
in the dark
reaching for you
whoever you are
and are you ready?” (p. 129)
