Here's what Jason has to say about Brackney's poems:

Barbara’s poems are at once precise and plain spoken. She nurtured a sense of urgency and directness in her work, paring down her stories to the salient detail that might illustrate the whole. I love how honest and revealing her poems are, how she achieved her goal of remaining in these pages.
