"This is the most powerful and personal collection of poetry I have ever read," remarked Tom Spence, author of Observations and Commentary: One Hundred Poems.
"A book of our time," asserted Veronica Golos, author of GIRL (winner, International Naji Naaman Honor Prize for Poetry, Beirut, Lebanon), and Vocabulary of Silence (winner, New Mexico Poetry Award).
The poems in this collection reflect the realities of happiness, strength, and love, as well as cumulative disabilities, death, grief-and a passage to healing. This book blends Humanity with Poetry, both of which the poet believes are essential to life.
Deering has won numerous poetry awards, including the Wyoming Arts Council Poetry Fellowship.

Her first book, Havoc & Solace: Poems of the Inland West, was published by Sastrugi Press, 2018.
