"Prepare yourself for a short journey into a long reality.
Do yourself a favor and read and reread with an opening mind.
This author knows of what she writes....." Author-poet-medium MariJo Moore
Right on. Right on. Right on. With clarity of heart and soul, Trace Laura Hentz writes poetry and prose that resonates and illuminates the unfortunate typical burdens of our time. Mental Midgets is filled with an astute perspective that is missing from mass media stories. Through the resonance of her writing, those of us who feel weighted by the burdens of our era, Hentz's words help lift us up as we feel less alone and less singular in our attempts to reassert the values for non-greediness, non-racism, and non-bullying in our multicultural society.
As well as perceptive observations of the tRUMP crisis, Hentz writes of our enduring indigenous spirit that lives on and on even as the impact of centuries of human rights abuses against Native American peoples remain intertwined amongst us. Hentz writes of the spirit, love, and light that holds us together; within ourselves, with one another, and amidst our beloved ancestors. Poet Anecia Tretikoff
Writer KC Redding emailed: I like the format of Midgets, the way each work sneaks up on you by yelling in your ear first. Kind of reminds me of walk softly, big stick words...
