You Better Be Lightning by Andrea Gibson

You Better Be Lightning by Andrea Gibson

You Better Be Lightning by Andrea Gibson is a queer, political, and feminist collection guided by self-reflection. The poems range from close examination of the deeply personal to the vastness of the world, exploring the expansiveness of the human experience from love to illness, from space to climate change, and so much more in between. One of the most celebrated poets and performers of the last two decades, Andrea Gibson's trademark honesty and vulnerability are on full display in You Better Be Lightning, welcoming and inviting readers to be just as they are.

Andrea Gibson isn't kind to them when it comes to the truth. Gibson, the first woman to win the Women's World Poetry Slam, has performed at top venues across the country, delivering stunning readings on war, class, gender, bullying, white privilege, sexuality, love, and spirituality. Their work has been aired on the BBC, Air America, C-SPAN, Free Speech TV, and was read by a state lawmaker at the Utah State Legislature in lieu of morning prayer in 2010.
