Johnston, Anneka
- Abstract
I He'll squirm less when he's dead i my instructor jokes, and laughs when my hands jump to cover his ears betraying my need to protect this patient from her sharp truth, her rough decree that to the world, he is already unhearing unseeing, unformed, already dispersed beyond our reach, beyond revision the way fire burns wood into ash the way that ash and water will forever be mud. B "CNA Clinicals Day #3" by Anneka Johnston was awarded third place in the William Carlos Williams Poetry Competition. b Anneka Johnston grew up in West Michigan and attended Kenyon College, majoring in English with a special certification in creative writing and minoring in chemistry. Anneka's poem "CNA Clinicals Day #3" is an exploration of how caretakers struggle to make meaning out of death.
