My poem - Never look back woman - from 1993 -



Transitions

Never look back woman all your bridges
nearly burned behind you
you may be turned to salt stone
salt from caked up tears a pillar
like a plaster cast holding me immobile rigid
spine broken needing to be reset
naked underneath –
my head turned backwards
south southeast
permanently.

Fragment - copyright Kyi May Kaung

Much to read from the Atlantic--incld--Friday Night Massacre.
