An exclusive excerpt from Sweet Nothings- The Love Poems of Amaru by Lee Siegel (Speaking Tiger 2022)
“Will you come home to me tomorrow?”
She asks her lover in her sorrow,
“In the morning? Or the afternoon?”
“Or late at night? Tell me just how soon.”
Choking on her tears, the girl delays
A journey that will last a hundred days.
