“My writing is a search for meaning, beauty, love, an integration of my lost parts.” From the widely praised writer comes her fourth collection of startlingly original poetry. With a singular range that inspires, this collection energizes her earlier lyrical narrative with the sass and verve of spoken word, and the slap of slam.
