Description - The King by Rebecca Wolff

A bold, lyrical invention by an award-winning poet whose “gift for the gorgeous” won praise from Robert Pinsky. The King is a groundbreaking collection following a Self—a mother, lover, wife, thinker—in her fractured approach to the absolutes of pregnancy, postpartum depression, childrearing, belief, love, and epistemology. Here is a potent exploration of one woman’s coming together with the Other—her hard-won attachment to “the King.”

from “Deeply Psychological”

And then I surfaced
a whole matrix
or rubric
magical thinking
other kinds of thinking
but in layers, you understand,
with supremacy
a honeycomb.
