Hungry Ghosts—Collected Poems

Book Cover & Preview Text
Wellspring Sit by your own well, girl. Do you have a rope? A bucket or pail? A ladle? A cup, for that matter? Can you drink of your own water? Is it deep, cool and clear? Was it salted or poisoned by another? Is there lichen on the walls, or mosses? Why do you have faith in the seed and bloom of snapdragons, yet doubt your own ability to blossom? Sit by your own well, girl, and wait for the woman to emerge. She will be thirsty.
