lb_lee"My sister and I
talk in our heads..."
Blurb: Eight short poems by a multiple, dealing with topics ranging from death, despair, and denial, to longing for connection and friendship.
Why is it worth your time?: Some of them still sing clear, even after thirty-five years, and in short lines, they precisely delineate grief, righteous anger, and fear. No clue whatever became of Ann H., or whether she made more poetry, but at least we have this little time capsule.
Plural Tags: abuse high focus, memory work, medical
Content Warnings: contain spoilers; see comments
Access Notes: Originally published in MPD newsletter Speaking for Our Selves, Vol. 1, no. 4, from June 1986, and thus these poems are only available in bootleg form. The original scanned file of the entire issue (non-screenreadable) is here. I have also textually transcribed the poems alone for posterity.
Misc Notes: Contains the poems "I Called You," "I Have No Arms," "You Ran Away," "Preoccupied," "Why Dig Up The Past?" "Magic Grab Bag," "My Sister and I," and "My Friend, in Peace and Love."
