Andrea was the name of the veteran who lived under the bridge. She spoke in a whisper, never looking in my direction. Sentences came to me broken into bits, in shards of thought that I had to gather up and fit together.
Works:
Descent of Inanna
Percy Bysshe Shelley, “Ozymandias”
Gilgamesh
Jonathan Shay, Achilles in Vietnam: Combat Trauma and the Undoing of Character
Brooke King, War Flower: My Life After Iraq
