re, of sass and survival, of love and longing, Cheryl Hopson opens the gate around her heart, and out tumbles everything that can't be drunk away, laughed away, hoped away. Deliberate, unafraid, and armed with the power of poetry, she swats at her demons, she questions everything, she sings like Lionel Ritchie about the need to be free. Cheryl Hopson is a poet to be reckoned with."

-Tom C. Hunley, What Feels Like Love: New and Selected Poems
