Rescue the Word

Poems by Marilyn Buck



Like Audre Lorde, Marilyn Buck belongs to a counterculture of activist poets who see poetry as a necessity, not a luxury.
— David Meltzer

We find love undaunted, defiant, and resistant in the poems of Marilyn Buck ... we thank her for living life to its fullest ... for showing us that they can never imprison our souls.
— Kwame Ture
