LET ME BURN LIKE THIS
Prayers from the Ashes
By Wade Kearley
Desire, betrayal, breakdown, and something like resurrection--these are the glowing embers that illuminate Let me burn like this. Wade Kearley takes us on a journey through the searing wreckage of emotions -- in the bedroom, at the office, in the cafes and malls, on the streets, clinging to a mountainside.
Wade Kearley's poems at times sing with a spiritual reverence and at other times chant with a grounded and irreverent anger, but always render in plain yet startling language, unforgettable images that will haunt your senses |
