Horseflesh

The poems in this collection from Amberle L. Husbands follow a diverse assortment of women and men, all of whom have just one thing in common; the marketing of human bodies. They present the laughter and heartbreak that reside always in sexuality, in erotic moments both subtle and otherwise. The lyrical narrative captures the joy and pain of her characters, through candid, perceptive eyes. Often times humorous but never far from the grit of its setting, Horseflesh is a collection of poems to remind us that it’s necessary, from time to time, to walk around wearing the skins of other humans.
