Ordinary Cruelty

In her debut poetry collection Ordinary Cruelty Amber Flame spells out rituals in everyday decisions to hold on or let go.

While questioning the role of elder mentor mother in the face of losing those figures Flame details the unrelenting nature of parenthood through the cycles of grief.

Her poems exuberantly rejoice in the brown skin of the female body while soberly acknowledging the societal dangers of claiming such skin as home.

Flame takes the reader through a visceral examination of the body's processes of both dying and continuing to live and the joy to be found while we do.
