The words comprising Andrea Gibson’s poems are only a component of what you get when you experience her performance. There is power in her voice, a vehement enunciation of language that transforms into a rhythmic dance. Her body language engages the audience, as she becomes the poem; her vocal echoes scratching at the human core. Yet she is able to remain quite humble. “I only hope that my poems are heard … hoping they might change some things for the [greater] good.”
