A collage of sorts that both reclaims and basks in its own careful lyric and narrative. What we have in When We Exhale is a ritual and “a return of eden”; exigence through a bleeding sun; an incantation to sustain and then some; memory and the tongues way of rendering it through scattered milkweeds. What a recollection and projection within these pages.
