IN THE PRESS

Walking home on the Upper East Side one day, I saw an older woman standing in front of a small apartment building. She was throwing bread crumbs to little birds that were hopping around slowly and pecking at them...

There is an episode of Good Times wherein the father, James Evans, spanks a teenager for misbehaving. Afterwards, James’s wife Florida says to the young man, “He beats you because he loves you...”

Deep inside of me -

the whole pregnancy

He kicked: my fetus -

a little boy

I didn't know at the time

He reigned my every thought

by just a slight twist and hiccup...
