I Have to Live: Poems

By Aisha Sasha John

A new collection ablaze with urgency and radiant inquiry from a 2015 finalist for the Trillium Book Award for Poetry A demand and promise; an obligation and challenge; a protest and call- I have to live. Juiced on the ecstasy of self-belief- I have to live. A burgeoning erotics of psychic boldness- I have to live. In which sensitivity is recognized as wealth- I have to live. Trumpeting the forensic authority of the heart- I have to live. This is original ancient poetry. It fashions a universe from its mouth.
