I have mixed feelings about the end to the Women Are Some Kind of Magic series. On one hand, I loved the first two books, but this one just didn't quite do it for me. I was disappointed with the choice to include other poets work in this. I felt like with the other collections there was more fluidity and connection between the sections, but that wasn't quite the case here. I liked quite a few poems but there wasn't a bunch or a whole section that really stood out to me. Which is disappointing. But I definitely enjoyed reading it and I am happy to have done so.
"the
only way
i can
foresee
surviving
you
is by
finding
that place
between
forgiving
& forgetting,
if it even
exists.
- this is how i choose to douse my fire."
