Barbara J. McKee’s Trilogy of One and other poems
HUMAN FACETS
This is Who I am
look at me
This is What I think
listen to me
This is When I cry
console me
This is How I feel
embrace me
This is Why I’m here
to love
With this, Albuquerque poet and Tribune Columnist
Barbara J. McKee opens her first book-length collection of work. Trilogy of One and other
poems, reviewed by Socorro Romo (author of Tiliches and No Artificial Anything) is
“cathartic, surreal at times. I am reminded once again to think of Frida Kahlo, and
all the women warriors I have known, and know of. I honor and applaud Barbara McKee’s
metamorphosis. Trilogy of One will transplant you to another dimension, perhaps one you
have never known.”
McKee has been published in poetry newsletters, anthologies, and university publications. The themes of McKee’s poetry and fiction lean toward the evolvement of disabled women in roles that society deems unobtainable.
