Assiyah Jamilla writes with a unique genius that only belongs to those spirits of epochal change. Poems that are all at once a physicist's altar, a musician's trance, a reporter's gun. Our current definitions of the most sacred facets of the human journey cannot keep up with the phenomenal-architectural demands of this work. Read these poems to witness an enlightenment begin again. - Tongo Eisen-Martin, author of Heaven Is All Goodbyes
