A Boot's a Boot (Cleveland State University Poetry Center New Poetry)

Poetry. "There isn't another poet imagining and delivering poetry as Lewis does. What she thinks and how she lets us into her thought stirs up one's imagination, invites us to be as alive as her thoughts are, and shows us once again what poetry can do when we let it roam as the feral thing it is. She takes fate and time and talks to them about love and inevitable grief. I love this book, her poems never fail to mesmerize."—Dara Wier
