Biographie:
Arsego's recent book of poetry, Cadence, is an absorbing read. To me, the poetry offers the author's complex and passionate insights, leading herself and the reader to a deeper level of emotional freedom. I felt seen. The poetry is personal and highly relatable. The honesty in her words and the (sometimes) painful imagery are strong but refreshing in their directness. I like it! Heartbreak and struggle can lead to great work, and I feel that this poetess has achieved it. Support this writer! -- Stacey Dexter, author of Eddie: One Dog's Journey from Hobo to a Home
