Lost Footnotes of the Gospels Holly Jensen

""Holly Jensen's poetry sneaks up beside you, nudges you gently or whacks you on the head, and leaves you thinking: 'Damn, I didn't know words could do that.' Oh, and that sharp intake of breath you heard? That was you, reacting."" --Christine Howey, creator of Exact Change // ""Just when I thought, after all these years, that I had a grip on my tiny view of the universe, these wondrous poems require me to abandon my notions and start over. At once mystical and probing, they are also gritty and decidedly honest. As good poems should, this collection reminds us there is much work to be done in our daily interior labors."" --Michael Delp, author of The Last Good Water // ""Profound without self-importance, these poems present as sacred superscript the lessons blazing into a life and those life burns away."" -- Elizabeth Savage, author of Grammar // Fresh, sharp, haunting, and funny, ""Lost Footnotes of the Gospels"" sheds a unique light on the heavenly and the human.
