"No sex, just milk
is all we have to show for it
and if I am insane
And if I am
then let me be so
let this skewed vision of the world always be so
moon man
you will always be the nothing of the Fall
let it be
so let the others run rampant
let it be so
dark eyes
and if I am insane
let it be so"

I really enjoyed this collection! Lasky has a way with words that catches you. With nods to women, motherhood, life, sex creation of life, death, blood and birth. It was raw and blunt at times. I haven't read any of her other work but I am intrigued after this one.
