"What she didn’t know about him would flood a swimming pool.
What she couldn’t bear resembled spilled milk.
His public life open, private life hidden beyond her ken.
Cards held close to his chest."
"Spilled Milk" by Elizabeth Wadsworth Ellis, on the blog now: www.voicecatcher.org/blog/spilled-milk

What she didn’t know about him would flood a swimming pool. What she couldn’t bear resembled spilled milk. His public life open, private life hidden beyond her ken. Cards held close to his chest.

"The abstracted imagery is suggestive of female anatomy to raise awareness and reference menstruation. Works center on a focus of fine Indian silk brocade, which was purchased on deep discount at Hobby Lobby before the Supreme Court case and hoarded until being used in these pieces as further commentary on female reproductive health & rights."

"These works seek to refuse the perception of African female art as simply the illustration of a human with a baby on her back and a gourd on her head. They explore the concepts of intersectional feminism, societal identity, s*xual partiality, and skin discrimination."

"The cure for loneliness is love, someone wrote. I want affection, attention and sentiment with my s*x. Consensual, but there's a skeleton in my lingerie drawer." Powerful essay by Elizabeth Wadsworth Ellis on the blog now.

After watching the film a cousin broke my drunken h***n in the passenger seat of his red car saying, “I always liked you best.” I was 15 years old. His wife was pregnant with their first c...
