Poetry Room: This Camel's Back

http://samanthathornhillpoetry.blogspot.com/2009/07/this-camels-back.html

Poems by Samantha Thornhill published online or in print. Wednesday, July 1, 2009. On the murder of Sean Bell. Unconcerned with the needle. In the haystack, and the pot. At the ass end of rainbows. No crusade for the magic. Stick, or godmother's wand. Today we ponder the proverbial. We have been journeying. This desert for days. Singing from livid hoses;. In the distance, cacti. By day we are candles. Burning at both ends;. At night we shiver like astronauts. In our measley tents. Somehow it does too;.

Poetry Room: Red Dust

http://samanthathornhillpoetry.blogspot.com/2009/07/red-dust.html

Poems by Samantha Thornhill published online or in print. Wednesday, July 1, 2009. Cleaning day Friday and vacuum. Cleaning day Friday and vacuum bag plump. Red Sahara dust blown Sahara dust blown clear. Across the Atlantic Africa wafting in our windows. Silt ghosts settling on our couches our shoulders table tops. Silt ghosts like flurries in our tracheas our lungs bags. Plump with red Sahara dust blown clear across. The Atlantic the blue wet grave of the dead. Mummy’s ancient broom choked with.

Poetry Room: Jezebel's Song

http://samanthathornhillpoetry.blogspot.com/2010/10/jezebels-song.html

Poems by Samantha Thornhill published online or in print. Monday, October 25, 2010. Like flies under Saturday. Jezebel always wore the same. Pantyhose to mass—the jet black ones. With control top and run. No wife’s perfume matched her. Hard ons in folds of robes;. My face into her paisley hip. At men with her left eye. Their wives with her right. Then kissed their babies. Lips cool ocean floors. Secrets sleeping on her. Taste buds like peppermints. How yuh letters, gyul she asked. Once she stuck out.

Poetry Room: House of the Rising Daughter

http://samanthathornhillpoetry.blogspot.com/2009/07/house-of-rising-daughter.html

Poems by Samantha Thornhill published online or in print. Friday, July 3, 2009. House of the Rising Daughter. House of the Rising Daughter. Give thanks to your mansion. Of a mama in that cold square room. The push and pull of breath. That brought you round the bend. On the shores of our regret. We celebrate you angel—. The future needs you. To star in its story. Your face a rising sun clotted. With beauty’s blood—your first. Glass ceiling so perfectly shattered. Watch how you pounce the horizon—.

Poetry Room: Ode to a Killer Whale

Poems by Samantha Thornhill published online or in print. Monday, October 25, 2010. Ode to a Killer Whale. Ode to a Killer Whale. From the perspective of Kunta Kinte. Black boy, with a name. And a plight like that. You may as well claim. African. No matter. You into the black waters. Of Iceland where you learned. To hunt from top rung,. Hundred miles on a day’s. Time to frolic in the sun. Light shining down on the deep. Sea diver’s sole delight-. Some white boy locker. Brother had I known. In us each tha...
