Amber Decker's Inevitable Wreckage shows up to a knife fight with a flamethrower. The speaker in one poem says, I am afraid to write this poem. I / am afraid to not write this poem. This is a book of necessary truths, that a lover could kill the good in you / with a knife made of silence, that a violent thunderstorm leaves behind a sky as blue / and seamless as an unbroken robin's egg that, to ask out loud / for love / does not mean you / are broken. Decker is our Sylvia Plath, our Anne Sexton. We should all be reading every single word she writes. Shaindel Beers, author of A Brief History of Time and The Children's War and Other Poems
