These Many Rooms <\/em><\/h1>\n

Laure-Anne Bosselaar<\/h2>\n

With the speaker of Bosselaar’s poems, we move through dark rooms of grief, finding our way into the light of quiet solitude.<\/em><\/p>\n

“[So, how are you?<\/em>]” from These Many Rooms<\/em><\/p>\n

So, how are you? friends ask, all kindness & concern,
\nheads cocked, eyes locked in mine.<\/p>\n

&, just like that, I\u2019m his again:
\nhis wife, his widow: the one whose name<\/p>\n

was hyphenated to his \u2014 & I\u2019m oddly
\nhappy to speak about<\/p>\n

myself, coupled to him again, finally,
\n& say I\u2019m okay, better, but won\u2019t say<\/p>\n

his name out loud yet because I know
\nI\u2019d throw a shadow over the conversation \u2014<\/p>\n

all kindness & concern \u2014 & over him also,
\nwho no longer has a shadow.<\/p>\n
