A review by eren_reads
Directed by Desire: The Collected Poems by Adrienne Rich, Sara Miles, June Jordan, Jan Heller Levi

challenging dark emotional reflective slow-paced

4.0

These poems 
they are things that I do
in the dark
reaching for you
whoever you are
and are you ready?

These words
they are stones in the water 
running away

These skeletal lines
they are desperate arms for my longing and
love.

I am a stranger
learning to worship the strangers
around me
 
whoever you are
whoever I may become.
-These Poems

This is such a beautiful, and massive, collection of poem which touches on a variety of themes and ideas: race, racism and love to name a few.
