On the Desire to LevitateOn the Desire to Levitate is the first collection of poems by Alison Powell. This striking collection includes vivid, unflinching meditations on aging, mythology, poetry, and family. In tight, elegant lines that alternate between homage and elegy, these poems explore known subjects with a rebellious eye: a defeated Hercules and a bitter Eurydice, a sympathetic Lucifer, and generations of adolescent girls as mythical adventurers moving within a beloved

On the Desire to Levitate is the first collection of poems by Alison Powell. This striking collection includes vivid, unflinching meditations on aging, mythology, poetry, and family. In tight, elegant lines that alternate between homage and elegy, these poems explore known subjects with a rebellious eye: a defeated Hercules and a bitter Eurydice, a sympathetic Lucifer, and generations of adolescent girls as mythical adventurers moving within a beloved but confining Midwest. Yet in Powell's skillful hands, hardship never overtakes: as judge Charles Hood writes, "There's often a delicious humor in this work, and always a deep and lasting integrity."

It works!! Worth every penny!
I'm a type 2 diabetic and insulin resistant, so I normally have a dark ring on the back of my neck. I've tried everything. This stuff with the first treatment removed it. It's gone! Worth every penny!! The before photo is a year old. However it looked like that prior to the treatment.

Amazing product
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This cream is amazing! I was not expecting the results I got. My face feels soft, plump, and the redness in my cheeks is disappearing. My skin looks youthful and I’m 57. Very hydrated definitely don’t hesitate to purchase.
