Praise For Cut the Lights
Micaela Walley leans all the way into the eye of grief, into the sweat of memory, into the ‘onyx and obsidian’ wing of the vulture as it hunts. These poems draw us close in a voice that is honest, full of breath and close to flesh.
ASHLEY M. JONES
Poet Laureate of the State of Alabama
With sardonic wit and a post-modern sense of reinvention, this collection resonates with wisdom, lyricism, and urgency. The poems reflect on history and personal ancestry while also staking a claim for the future.
CHARLOTTE PENCE
author of Code and Many Small Fires
Laying aside the bombast of knives, Walley’s poems work like scalpels. Each incision reveals an instant—the pills, the drugs, the anxieties of family rupture—and unlocks the instants of the past as they tread on the future.
