Description of the Book:
 
Kids live to rebel. Sometimes, they die to rebel too. Cigarettes in Heaven is a small collection of poetry and prose that encapsulates the stark contrasts and vivid experiences of being young in a world that only grows old. At a certain point in our lives, we cease being children. But we are not adults yet either. Not anyone’s daughter or son, sister or brother, villain or hero. The poetry in this book captures the open scorn of consequences, false notions of immortality, the demeanors and misdemeanors of an incurable human affliction: youth. There is terrible tragedy here—and terrible joy.
