An American Sunrise by Joy Harjo
4.0
Gorgeous and devastating.
Rarely do I experience poetry in audio as a first read, but this was the correct choice here. These words sing with power and emotion and cadence because they are her own, regardless of professional technique. The authenticity is everything.
Be who you are, even if it kills you.
It will. Over and over again.
Even as you live.
Break my heart, why don't you?
