Poems by Barbara DeCesare have appeared previously in Unlikely Stories, as well as Poetry, Alaska Quarterly Review and many others. She is a perennial instructor at the University of Pennsylvania's Writers' Conference, a featured writer at the most recent Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Festival, and a paralegal with a depressing collection of cute pumps and three teenaged kids. If you like the tracks featured on the site, please consider purchasing Adrift - she's still in the hole about a grand for it and she's running out of reasons to live.
