| Who You Are
poems by
Nancy Henry
|
Riveting, often heartbreaking poems of such power that you feel they’ve changed you in some fundamental way. There are breathtaking lines in these poems, bottomless compassion, brave and unfaltering observation of the horrific damage human beings do to one another. Nancy Henry has written a book of poems unlike any I have ever read.
- Jack McCarthy -
Nancy Henry, diviner of truth, with haunting words and images bears witness to the anguish endured and the anguish inflicted by damaged minds, the unfathomable tendencies of a sickened heart, the mercilessness of insanity, the agony of the heroine who has arrived too late, and humanity’s inadequacies in fixing the pivotal fractures of our most fragile world companions—our children. Oh, how our broken babes do share their pain, their tortured sense of inhumanity—all the gross injustices of their worlds—how their cries do insinuate themselves into our numb hearts. There are poems within these pages that you will never forget. Nancy Henry, with pen as both sword and shield, has succeeded where others have failed in negotiating the oft-times impotent corridors of the law. Within the pages of this collection, for the lost, the broken, the gone, Henry renders justice—that elusive, fickle, rare force—poetic justice—the sweetest kind.
