The witch: supernaturally powerful, inscrutably independent, and now--indestructible. These moving, relatable poems encourage resilience and embolden women to take control of their own stories. Enemies try to judge, oppress, and marginalize her, but the witch doesn't burn in this one.

โฆ Synopsis
Poetry. The poems in Jacqueline Waters's highly anticipated second book make the rounds of vigilance, distraction, absorption, conviction, and trepidation, via sudden bouts of vertigo and hard poetic work. Says the author, "Some of the poems are asleep, some try to stay awake long enough to learn something, and a few employ a strategy of excessive concern with the process of their own production. Some of the poems are awake at a time they would rather be asleep." The serial poems in this collection ignite both halves of the brain, steering clear of unnecessary intimacy or excessive aloofness as they examine how the feelings of one person are modified by the presence of others.
