Poetry. "Wouldn't you like to know what happened when Marilyn Monroe made love to Joan Crawford? (Hint: a webbed foot was involved.) Why holy is a secular world? What Barrack Obama's grandmother thought? What the poet said to the truck driver? And why a fourteen-year-old girl would throw her newborn out a window? In Erica's impressive collection we hear a myriad of characters speak--some hilarious, some ironic, some tragic--and we can't help but listen. And learn"--Sharon Mesmer. "These aren't poems. They're ball gowns"--Rachel McKibbens.
