Chole Smith's poems brim with a playful rebellion against the mundane. Whether it's sneaking out under a cloak of stars ("Night Swim") or finding beauty in the unexpected ("Ode to a Dandelion"), her mischievous narrator invites readers to embrace a little harmless chaos.
The poems themselves are a treat. Smith uses vivid imagery and unexpected turns of phrase to bring her mischievous spirit to life. Each poem feels like a whispered secret shared between the reader and the narrator, making the act of reading itself feel like a tiny act of rebellion.
