Maybe some of us are unnoticed galaxies tucked inside a heavy coat. The girl with thirst on her tongue wants to taste hot dates, pantomimes, liquid kisses. In the dowry of her heart a pole star burns bright as a secret corridor, cups flame, turns her mouth into meadow. Is it possible in some eyes even paradise on a shoestring remains the bright corsage of a burning bush?
The poems in this probing collection are a radiant, playful attempt to understand our humanity, find a more accurate vocabulary for love.
