Forche is brilliant. I studied under her at Georgetown and she is just brilliant. This poem makes you feel kind of sick though doesn't it? It just sort of disturbs you. I think its the mix of dinner and jars filled with ears coming to life.
Wow. This is my first time hearing Carolyn Forche. She does not dissapoint. I have to say I could see every line as she read it. Very distinct rythym and lyrical suspense. I would like to hear it without background music as well. Thank you for posting this.
This reminds me of the late thirties, specifically, Franco and his merry band of conquistadors. With a little help, from that other humanitarian, Adolph. I do realize that isn't the case. This atrocity is more recent. Love commenting on your posts Ray. Mike
