The Branches, the Axe, the Missing

"This poetry is dangerous in the way that we've always suspected poetry might be: poetry as truth-teller, poetry as seductress. There's enough narrative to keep anyone who loves stories hooked; experimental spaces for the innovative reader to co-create in; fierce honesty that does not give way to any trend; lyricism that can be set to music. Once you've entered the silken tent of Charlotte Pence's poetry, you will want to stay inside the intelligence and beauty for a long time, to resist the ordinary." — Marilyn Kallet

Charlotte Pence is the author of two award-winning chapbooks, The Writer's Path, and the editor of The Poetics of American Song Lyrics.
