Poem in Four Way Review

“St. Teresa of Ávila imagined within herself a multi-walled castle
and deep within that castle, like the most dangerous prisoner, God.

I imagine within myself a nothing insisting it’s everything
shrunk to the tip of an arrow, piercing.”

Read Emma Bolden’s poem, “I Consider What to Say When My Doctor Asks Me to Describe My Pain,” in Four Way Review.
