Some Poetry
A Love Story
Elizabeth Oxley's first poetry collection, After April Rain , contains twenty-nine poems and nine illustrations that chart the course of one "good girl" navigating landscapes of "long fields of skin," a drugstore "temple on [an] asphalt mount," "the weather in my grandmother’s living room…before her lungs rattle—not thunder / rolling closer but sunshine mobilizing to depart;" and a house, where outside "pink blooms erupt like wounds."
