This collection invites readers to embrace the mosaic of existence and find beauty in the brokenness.'Art History' invites readers on a journey through time, mirroring the layers of history and emotion in the strokes of a painting. From Byzantine to Pop Art, each era leaves its mark, much like the artist’s brush on canvas. The poem reflects on the parallels between the restoration of art and the restoration of self, exploring the complexities of identity and the beauty found within imperfection.In 'Breaking,' the fragility of life is laid bare as a necklace breaks, scattering beads like memories along a path. Each bead holds a fragment of existence, a testament to the richness of experience and the inevitability of loss. Through poignant imagery, the poem captures the delicate balance between resilience and vulnerability, reminding us of the preciousness of every moment.In 'She Was Breaking,' the unraveling of reality is explored through the lens of mental illness, as the narrator grapples with the unsettling presence of delusion. Through vivid snapshots of everyday life, the poem captures the complexity of navigating a world where truth and illusion blur, offering a poignant reflection on love, loss, and the search for meaning.In 'The Prom Dress Room, 'Color illustrations coordinate with the verse like perfect beaded evening bags in Hazlett’s The Prom Dress Room. The poet examines poverty, depression, abuse, and more. Most of all, she celebrates the courage of women. ~Denise Low, Kansas Poet Laureate 2007-09
