Griffiths, Rachel Eliza 2015
Another time after she left
I saw a headless woman
hurrying after her like a jaguar.

Rachel Eliza Griffiths’s Mule & Pear is one of the most affecting books of poetry I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading
I pick you up
& you are a child made of longing
clasped to my neck. Iridescent,
lovely, your inestimable tantrums,
I carry you back & forth
from the famine in your mind.
– Rachel Eliza Griffiths, “Dear America”
