Of willow bark and meadow-sweet

Luisa A. Igloria

Nov 1

Of willow bark and meadow-sweet, tjeret, salix, spirea; and synthetic distillations from coal and tar—  Of long histories of pain; agues, inflammations,  intermittent fevers—  Of measures and titrations weighed against the body's natural chemistry—  Of disease, dis-ease:  the many pathological  forms of discomfort—  Of systems, diagnostics, and dilations, courses for deconstructing the blood—  This evening I walked underneath a canopy  of sleeping magnolias—  A papyrus unfolded: part of me wanted desperately to read the inscription—  Part of me won't forgive if I knew there'd be no remedy.
