Overview"In a year of frequent intrastate travel, Alexandra ""Zan"" Delaine Hailey collected images of the Virginia landscape, the arts, the music of rock and rave, fusing them together into a series of tightly crafted poems. In Intrastate Lines, she takes readers on a meandering journey, capturing creatures, colors, tunes, and textures witnessed in nature, on highways, backroads, and celestial pathways, each poem, celebrating a moment-treasured yet ordinary. Together, the poems form a meditation, a celebration of life-her life and ours."

Table of ContentsReviews"Intrastate Lines is an open invitation to sink into the beautiful brevity and saturation of Alexandra ""Zan"" Hailey's work. Her voice floats like a ghost between the lines...speaking softly, but carrying great hope. Through the fragility of time and the impermanence of life, Zan unveils the quiet daily moments that are often overlooked but still yearn to be seen. Her poetry will let you taste summer clouds and leave you begging the bumble bee to show discernment, and kindness, when weighing down a petal. The world that she creates through her words is a revolving door that you want to step through again and again.-Natalie Potell, Poet Laureate, Prince William County, VA, 2018-2020 Each of Zan Hailey's poems is a love letter to life: perceptive, spare, melodic. Like various parts of a musical score flirt with each other, some being repeated but in a different key or to a varied tempo, Zan's poems speak to one another and to the reader. Whether she observes without judgment or describes beauty so it's somehow even more heartbreakingly beautiful, each poem is both its own song as well as a chorus of travelers celebrating life. -Kathy Smaltz, Poet Laureate, Prince William County, VA, 2016-2018" Author Information"Alexandra ""Zan'' Delaine Hailey (1992-2018)-writer, visual artist, dancer-served as an inaugural poet laureate in Prince William County, VA, 2014-2016.
