This poetic tale tells the story of the progress a polyamorous, sapphic couple make on a canoe excursion and the uncomfortable truths they come to terms with during the course of their trip.
The story explores transition, both in the relationship of the narrator, and in the other relationship that lurks in the shadows. Both are stuck in dysfunctional stasis and one must come to an end.
Around them, the natural environment subtly changes, adding depth to the feeling of urgency and threat.
The whole piece is available as spoken word poetry on SoundCloud by searching 'vmdoubt'. This is a poetry journey that is brought to life by the poet's reading.

Evangeline, the charming and alluring visitor from the city, and Caroline, the woman no one in town will talk about, but who everyone seems to know about.
