Deborah L. Davitt's To Love Unquietly oscillates between love and desire, life and death, oneness and severance. She masterfully weaves the various elements of relationships into a patchwork tapestry of poetry, which acts as a dark, dusty mirror showing what was, what could be, what could have been, and what is in its beautiful, cobwebbed truthfulness.
