Take a Rib, The Arc of a Life in Poems
In this timeline and collection, Diane Lilli returns to the poems of her
youth, with transformative imagery that tracks her lifetime of writing
poems, landing in 2025.
Beginning with her first poem written at eight years of age, the author
continues to share a real-time body of work from different moments
of her life, as a fantastical, poetic memoir.
Every poem is organized in chronological order and separated by
distinct phases of her life.
Take a Rib is a wild ride through the stages of life as seen through the
lines of a poet, from the freedom of surreal literary beginnings to the
bittersweet world as it changes for everyone.
"Saying goodbye again," she writes, "I remind you, the most beautiful
gardens grow inside fences."
