These poems are so good I didn't want to finish the book. Ociele has put her brilliance and pain and resilience and sorrow and hope out into the world in such abeautiful way. I wept and laughed with her words, and they have made me a better person in the collective struggle. I'll carry these words in my heart for a long time.

Ociele's poems are brilliant, devastating, and powerful. Each syllable is packed with deep care, love, and rage. So good.
