"Lisa is truly an escape artist, if you will. These poems are the bombs that went off next to her, and she has come walking out of the smoke and dust, to become the person that she is." - Johnny Indovina of Human Drama

"Love Letters & Suicide Notes" could be the title of a demented Country & Western song, an old 45 playing on a Chicago punk rock dive jukebox. Lisa's poems are pretty and pretty sad; true-funny; metaphorically inspired. These are consolation prizes you win just for surviving another night of "Damn them to Hell!" - Exene Cervenka

"Lisa Vicious fearlessly confronts the darkest corners of human experience: the specters of suicide, child abuse, and domestic violence, while confronting mental illness and drug addiction. With unflinching honesty, she lays bare the raw wounds of her past, inviting readers to bear witness to the shattered fragments of her soul. Yet, amidst the wreckage of despair, there exists a flicker of hope - a defiant ember that refuses to be extinguished." - Szandora LaVey
