The Self-Portrait
John Lee Clark is deafblind and lives in the Twin Cities with his wife, Adrian. The poem opens up with his back being kneaded by his beloved as a first gift. Then more sensory references returning that kneading of the back,. nuzzled the pillow and inhale and sniffed my glorious hands. And we meet these children, Jael, Amand and Azel, as well as then the animals, loafed and purring angel and hungry nib. There's such a lot of love and love as the primary communication.
