Critique de Liquid Soul by Traci Madrid
Liquid Soul, by Traci Madrid, provides a digression into and away from its subject. What the subject is—is beautifully hidden, circumvented, somewhat explained, but never announced. Perhaps that was the point—to miss the obvious. If so, even that moral truly needs it purpose to be understood, before it evolves into a beautifully layered cake with icing. The cherry on top happens to be Madrid’s harmony in the poem: “We are coin; two sides of the same thing…” This is what makes her poem a delight; it is exposition.
