More Animal than Human

Mary A. Rogers is a Certified Life Coach, Herbalist, Ordained Minister, Mystic, Reiki Master, and Writer. The founder of Woods and Wander, she is a widely published author and a regular columnist at Medium & Vocal. A verified Native (Apsáalooke/Crow) and Korean (her father was born in Seoul), her walk in this life is very close to the land and all that inhabits the wild- often more animal than human. "Transfixed by Mary's unbridled words, I found myself catching my breath as the poems opened me to long forgotten memories. Mary's poetry evokes the wilderness, the flight of Baba Yaga, and raw, human emotions; relatable, honest words that scrape the underworld of the soul. This is a collection you can return to over and over, poems for months like September, November, and any day where you long to dip into the mystic. I have long loved the integrity of Mary's word witchery - it excavates the things many have struggled with and risen from." -Monika Carless, Transforming the Mother Wound and The Dark Pool Trilogy
