this is not a love note

Emery Diercks is a cutting-edge poet whose prose reflects her perspective: raw, irreverant and purposeful. As a member of O.M.B.A. Crew, ONE MIC Bad Adstrins, Emery has illuminated stages across the Midwest including Speak Easy Poets in Topeka, Busker Festival in Lawrence and the ONE MIC- Wichita edition. Defying convention, Emery introduces her own creative construct while exploring love, anger, sadness, hope, women's issues and the plight of the disadvantaged in her debut book, "this is not a love note."
