i ate a rainbow for breakfast: poems and performances

By Joanna Crowell

"The poems in I Ate a Rainbow for Breakfast are honest, raw, and full of passion.There's an urgency in Joanna Crowell's voice, whether she's describing somethingas sweeping and profound as the history of African Americans or somethingas personal as a fight with a lover or a gynecological procedure. These poemsstop you in your tracks and make you take a long look at yourself and the worldaround you with new-found wisdom and tenderness."-Marjory Wentworth, Poet Laureate of South Carolina"Whether she is waxing academic, historic, or mystic, her poemsongs are alwayscandid and full of a sensuality that knows how to hold a hand. Like Lorde andSanchez, Joanna Crowell runs unapologetically with the wolves. I Ate A Rainbowfor Breakfast is a personal odyssey of spellbinding beauty and plainspoken action."-Kwame Alexander, Dancing Naked on the Floor: Poems and Essays
