The Venetian Blind Poems by Paula Green: A review

I’ve just finished reading Paula Green’s recently published poetry collection, ‘The Venetian Blind Poems’ in one sitting.

Quotes by Eileen Merriman (?)

“The world is white and bright and terrifying. My head is an over-ripe watermelon, ready to burst. My eyes are stinging, and my skin burns. My limbs are heavy, as though someone has poured molten lead into my veins. I can't turn my head, can't speak, can't see beyond this white-white-white. I'm dead, just like all the other kids this epidemic has taken away. Hell is a bright light searing your retinae. Heaven is a myth. I close my eyes. Wait for the reckoning.”
― Eileen Merriman, Violet Black
