All the Wrong Places, (Paperback)

"I know desire is/ a messy thing./ Still, I choose/ hope. Give in to/ the frivolous swell/ knotting and blooming/ beneath my rib/ and pray." Abbey Lynne Rays' stunning poem, "Still I Hope" captures the prominent theme throughout this collection: hope. Honest and vulnerable, but with undeniable strength and courage, she takes us on a poignant and lyrical journey of a young woman yearning and hoping for the kind of love that will erase a troubled past. Entrancing and emotional, her work will stick with you long after the pages are read.
