Armed with wit, charm, and original imagery, she engages with incidents in her Texas youth that range from traumatic to ecstatic--strewing oilfields, deer, drug dealers, and football games in between. These poems vary widely in style and subject matter, but they share precisely crafted language and this writer's unique perspective on a central Texas childhood. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThe TRP Chapbook Series\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e ... \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003efrom\u003c\/i\u003e \"Each Day a New Round of Sadness\"\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eIslands of the Hawaiian archipelago are connected \u003cbr\u003e to each other under the surface of the sea. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Under the surface of the sea something roils \u003cbr\u003e like a volcano preparing to explode. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e To explode sometimes suggests a solution \u003cbr\u003e to the situation of constraint, ubiquitous \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e as fear these days, when stasis is a prize. \u003cbr\u003e A prize, that is, compared to illness. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Can't wellness sink its teeth deep into me \u003cbr\u003e to feel acutely as a wound? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A wound is what the dream delivers \u003cbr\u003e with an image of my mother \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e wreathed in Hawaiian flowers-- \u003cbr\u003e tuberose releasing its cloying \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e daylong ennui.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"TRP: The University Press of SHSU","offers":[{"title":"Cat's Tongue: Poems Volume 13 | Kathleen Winter | Paperback | 9781680032697 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks H 1730640","offer_id":48167827898520,"sku":"1730640","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71ilkoPOzyL.jpg?v=1771955563","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/cats-tongue-poems-volume-13","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
