Ă propos de ce livre
Marshall's poems traverse familial mythography to investigate contemporary politics, Blackness, reproductive justice, and the stakes of race and interracial partnership, queerness, and love. With an unflinching seriousness she interrogates womanhood, meditates on race and queerness, and considers the monetary, mental, and physical costs of adopting or birthing a Black child.

For Dawn Wooten
I have the good fortune to be free:
to choose,
to have part of my cervix intact,
to change the locks after
Iâm attacked.
Somebody offered me a karate class.
I could still, with a little more
of the luck Iâve already enjoyed,
say yes to a manâ
to a little sugar.
Nobody has a life without a womanâs blood.
I could still go under and come out whole
enough to make
another whole lifeâ
a child to place to my motherâs bosomâ
Oh, to be free
enough to pick apart a rapist
man-in-charge, or
a god-doctor
with some script for all the reasons
he knows life is his enough to give
or take
like a kiss, or a breath.
Like a wave: to drown, uncover, or cover up.
An Abortion Ban
is a body snatcher,
is an ethnic cleansing.
The uterus is a cave,
is an incubator, is a vault,
is a self-destructing bomb,
is a thoroughfare.
Semen is an innocent bystander.
Penises are just boys being.
A woman is a vestibule.
A judge is a strict father,
is Joseph awed by his fatherâs creation,
is Joseph relieved of fault,
is Joseph saving face.
A woman is a support beam.
A girl is a receptacle.
A fetus without lungs is an unlucky horseshoe.
A fetus in a homeless woman is an empty pillowcase.
An embryo is a fingernail.
A fetus is a jail.
A woman who miscarries is a quarterbackâ
executed. Point blank.
A woman with a felony is insulation.
An angry man with a staircase is a felony-maker.
A livebirth with a dead mother is a school lunch.
A stillbirth is a twenty-thousand-dollar bill.
A pregnant black woman is a dead black woman.
A black woman who miscarries is a dead crow.
A state legislature is a vulture.
A choice is a liability.
A Planned Parenthood is a desert.
A Planned Parenthood is an oasis.
A woman is a treasure chest.
A woman is a former voter.
A uterus is a leash.
A stillbirth is a tether.
A thirteen-year-old is a child. Only that.
A woman is a bloom.
A seed is an explosive.
Fertilizer is a shackle.
A woman is a target.
A uterus is a target.
A felon is a target.
Self-Portrait as an Atlas Moth at the Bar
The boys get mad: Tease.
Iâm shameless.
I dance to sweat, rustle
every scale on my wings.
I use the moon to navigate
the night, follow flashes,
lit specks, neon for my flight.
I came to fill up
my lungs, fill up my blood,
fill up my head with night noise.
Anatomy of a Fish Hook
⊠how can I defend myself against what I want?
âHenri Cole
I fix my mouth to gather you
as our-other-selves stand in a doorway
eyeing us; insideâhereâis a flurry of embers.
My touch amuses youâ
down, up; hard, quiet. âIâm close,â you whisper.
I palm your knee, stroke your throat,
and you remain whole as a mercyâ
you are unequaled restraintâonly the briefest flinchâ
my lip slightly confused by the surfeit:
salt, water, muscle, saliva, fructose.
Ask yourself, are you sadder here outside
your alliances, weaning me from your thigh
(Clung on in a soulless coming), fear sprinkling
poison around you (Somebody near),
than whenâwith a kingâs ransom, a tongue,
paradiseâyou could hide your life, divide
it from a household peopled with closed mouths,
my barb fixed to your porous pink?
The Field of Blood
In the hospital, the man I love
lowers his eyes. Catheter. Cotton.
I join his mother for a walk.
If I were your mother,
Iâd tell you not to marry him.
My own mother says
I canât stay with a sick man.
You want to fi...
