Caro Claire Burke

The word 'yesteryear' first meant simply 'last year' before it drifted into a poetic name for any lost past.

Feels like wonder, unease and identity.

The voice policing a woman's anger often wears her own face.

A voice in my head, echoing softly: America hates angry women. The Lord hates angry women. You hate angry women. Do not be an angry woman.
