I met Joelle the year before this book was published when she taught me how to write poetry in a weeks intensive. Meeting Joelle and hearing her perform her poetry add immensely to the weight of this book. If she is ever near you and performing, I beg of you go and watch.

A book too perfect to ever truly be returned to the bookshelf. Instead it's words will haunt you, inhabit you, as they burrow a small place in your chest where they will continue to tell you their stories and you will share yours with them.
