Praise for Cosmic Nervosa…

A truly Steinbeckian celebration of humanity’s intricate dance with nature & society, with echoes of Hakuin, the zen master and sometimes poet.
– Jake Adenstein, Tokyo Vice

Pacing between sexcapades and solitude, Waller’s poems undress Tokyo from its neon glitz and show us the genuine disheveled parts of it too.
– Zoria Petkoska K, Wordigami 

Joy’s work is ‘so damn happy’ – a blessing, a curse, and again a blessing for all who read and allow her words to be at the cutting edge of our collective cosmic nerve.
– Barbara Summerhawk, Wake Me with a Shout

These exquisite poems go forth – to paraphrase Walt Whitman – hankering & mystical. In lines vibrant as Tokyo neon, this work both deranges and brings us to our senses. 
– Aaron Anstett, What Now
