Everything is Everything by Cristin O'Keefe Aptowicz
Praise for Everything is Everything
Sometimes you plod through the day, bumping into people, tripping over your own feet. But then there are those remarkable days when you move through the world as stealthly as ninja. The latter is how the poems move in this book. Cristin O’Keefe Aptowicz spits in her hands, grabs the sledgehammer, swings it hard, and rings that bell in poem after poem after poem. Everything is Everything is a winning collection chock full of swift, honest, smart, funny, and even tender poems that go up to 11.

CHECK OUT THIS SAMPLE POEM:
“HOUND”
Before you and I were together,
I guarded my heart like an old dog,
protective of the way it shuffled,
how it always kept its head down.
I could never trust it off leash,
sweeping its mouth with my finger,
making sure it wasn’t trying to swallow
something too large for its own good.
But now my heart is something we are
both responsible for: its daily walks,
its happy tongue, its round tummy,
the jingling song its tags make
when it comes through the door,
finally finally finally home.
