A Heart with No Scars

In his debut chapbook-length collection of poetry, Brennan "B Deep" DeFrisco examines change and the spectrum of lenses through which we view it.

"Brennan "B Deep" DeFrisco is one of my favorite up-and-coming performance poets. A HEART WITH NO SCARS is a fantastic look into the fire he brings to the stage. 'Empty Glass' feels like good whiskey after the last bad day of a terrible week."--Toaster

"The first line in this collection, 'Descend at your own risk, ' should stand as a warning. Prepare to fall in love, into mourning, mourn with the poet a city transforming and displacing, mourn the distance between friends and lovers, and imagine a future lover's apocalyptic kiss. Brennan "B Deep" DeFrisco is a romantic and a realist all at once. Step with caution and don't say you haven't been warned."--Cassandra Dallett, author of ON SUNDAY, A FINCH (Nomadic Press, 2015).
