Birds Carve Glass

Who needs long drawn out Iambic rhetoric to take the heart and soul to places of dark and light? Joddes style is reminiscent of film industries film noir period using shades, shadows, using patches of light in the right places to allow us to view not only her journey but allowing the reader to escape into their own voyage. Like film noir you get black and white leaving the reader to discover their own colors. Joddes pieces of magnificence pull no punches, they scream; make my words your words, my story our story and one heart to share if you open your eyes and feast at Joddes deep table of deep feeling and emotion.
