Bright Young Things

{Take the 100 Things challenge!}

The poem I would like to share today is Coal by Audre Lorde. I was thinking about her and a google search led me to this poem. What made me post it was my reaction to the end of it. I feel like the poems that really stay with me always have a certain ending. I will always react to either with shock or awe or some type of reaction. It's hard to explain but I feel like when I really like a poem I have to have some type of visceral reaction to it.
