I met this author at a market in my neighborhood, and I just think it’s so cool that she’s put herself out there by publishing such a vulnerable, soulful piece of work. It takes guts to do something like that! She’s very talented, and it’s clear she writes music, as a lot of these poems read lyrically.
My favorite excerpt from the collection: “This little city is full of color Golden houses side by side Smoke penetrates the air Take it all in if you dare Lucid dreams blur at the seams This is what life means
Let’s make this last Tomorrow it’ll be past We can whisk away time With an autumn mind Tonight, we aim for stars Tonight, Tonight is ours.”
