Psalm

Buffeted by grief at the death of her father and joy at the birth of her son, the poet explores and expands the boundaries of language, seeking affirmation in art and music. Her journey is viscerally personal, and yet the reader is beguiled, compelled to join in her vision and share in her enlightenment.
