Poetry Friday: Tell by Kristen Tracy

[slayground]

My students have problems. They put them
    down on paper, hand them to me and say here,

here is a poem. Sometimes they don't get
    anything right. Chad's sister bleeds to death

in a villanelle. We find her in the bathroom
    by following a trail of rhymes.

- selected lines from Tell by Kristen Tracy - Read the full poem in Kristen's amazing new poetry collection Half-Hazard.
