Question: Can an entire concept or idea be reduced to one word that the brain can then encapsulate into long-term memory and store despite a disease or blunt-force trauma to the head? The word selected must act like a key and must fully open like an umbrella releasing all associated thoughts. Is that at all possible? Ellejee Martin's long poem is a code game, a mystery, a tapping against prison walls at midnight. She reveals a muffled cry that is the treasure hidden and obscured among rhymes upon rhymes from within a place that is unseen. The gift is to be able to join her resistance against unseeing, to make visible the cry that is within her and within us.
