Today I Wear the Bear Head is a poetic tour de force, an extraordinary trip through a constellation of personas: some personal, some imaginary, some dropped from another universe. Nightgowns and bathtubs argue over how to hold a pregnant body. A bearded lady memorizes sex limericks for her date with Van Gogh. Tiny men attempt to inhabit a uterus. "'Just open the doors,' they holler." Amanda Chiado's wildly associative images and visceral descriptions are both devastating and beautiful. Often macabre, but always revelatory, each poem is a mysterious little treasure. Now, stop whatever you're doing. Go read this book. (Nancy Miller Gomez)
