Eggshells In Soft Black Hands: Poetry and Personal Essays

By Miko Reed Collins

Book Overview

From accomplished Poet and Spoken Word Artist, Miko Reed, comes an indelible collection of poetry and personal essays about love, abandonment, relationships, trauma, marriage, heartache, and finding her identity through it all.

With the rhythm of Nikki Giovanni and the spirit of Maya Angelou, Eggshells In Soft Black Hands, is a personal testament and a call to action to use our voice to heal from the eggshells that were passed down to us. Collins captures the delicacy of little black girls that are lost in the cycle of intergenerational trauma. On relationships, motherhood and self- love, she reinforces the truth that trauma, wrapped in love, is still trauma.

Sometimes falling into soft black hands is the only thing that saves us. Sometimes not.
