A good writer presents the reader with the wonderful, the wild, the weird and even those moments that are just wrong. The poems in Between Her Teeth do just that. It is refreshing to read the honesty of the writer poured onto the page in such a naked and sometimes beautiful, sometimes brutal manner. Mela confronts the vulnerability of life's realities in these poems. The fears, the fuck-ups, one-night stands, finding the one truest love, fragile struggle of self, freeing oneself and figuring out how much of the world to expose her daughter to.There is a grit to this collection that just will not wash off, no matter how sweet the soap. The fact that Mela has put these poems to paper provides the reader, whether they are in moment of darkness or light, with a companion to keep going, however, it may turn out.
