Poem #15: "Equinox" by Joy Harjo

Equinox

I find it interesting how in this poem Harjo describes herself as a harbinger of death and destruction.  She realizes her fault in this matter at states that she is willing to accept the consequences of her actions.  I also enjoyed its contemporary style with a relatively straight forward message as opposed to the hidden ones of older poems.
