Coffee & Cigarettes

by A. Derby

Warming, and at the same time chilling, Derby's poems are both vulnerable and potent. In attempts to embrace her own loves, withstand her own losses, confront her own past present & future, she cultivates a much larger audience than she anticipates. Full of insight and untouchable grace, she stumbles upon our own emotions and adds what can only be described as new perspective to a world in which she not only writes, but lives.
