“Few poets know sex and death as well as Adrian Ernesto Cepeda, whose verse relishes in the escape, release, and transformation that both pleasure and the cessation of life have to offer. Each piece in We Are the Ones Possessed is a petite mort—a potent and intoxicating little death that scares us titillated—and through these poems we may learn how to live and die deliciously.”
— KIM VODICKA, AUTHOR OF DEAR TED AND THE ELVIS MACHINE

 

 

“Cepeda’s atmospheric poems evoke an image of death that’s horrific and lovely, which I believe is fundamentally an optimism. We Are the Ones Possessed is not only an honor to many literary women; it’s an image of death as something more beautiful than it is—a death beyond death, its redemption.”
– CHARLENE ELSBY, AUTHOR OF PSYCHROS & HEXIS FROM CLASH BOOKS
