Somewhere we are becoming /  
ourselves — 
... from SNAKESKIN, Girlwood (Brick Books) 

In Girlwood, Jennifer Still takes us on a flaming Sambuca, Jiffy Pop, Gravitron ride through girlhood and adolescence.

This poetry collection, her second, was launched Saturday at Regina's Talking Fresh poetry summit.

Less than a day later, I've read half and skimmed the rest.

Girlwood: Brick Books

Time to slow down and savour the moths, humming birds, leaves, "leaves under skin, private foliages."
