Predictive Text - Warren, Crystal

. .

Résumé :
I use words

to counter chaos.

I map the mountains,

exploring peaks and valleys,

avoiding avalanches.
In a series of tender, bite-sized poems on being a writer, loneliness, faith, patriarchy, climate change, grief, and more, Crystal Warren offers up an ode to the every day. With Warren's signature light touch, Predictive Text is sensitive, unaffected, a relief from the brash, unrelenting tumult of twenty-first century life, while tethered to deeper truths.
