Woman Unfolding
by Jenna Mervis
These are poems of unfolding. A brain in limbo; a mother's warnings, unheeded; the diving and swimming in life; fiances who evolve into husbands; a child not yet conceived; poems birthed so that the reader follows the evolution of a word into something tangible, erect, living. The poems in Woman Unfolding recognise the significance of poetry - its existence in the ordinary, as well as in the remarkable yet quiet evolutions we undergo through existing.
