Her touch is deft, witty, conversational yet capable of taking the measure (literally) of life and death. The interlocking nature of the crown of sonnets makes perfect sense in her capable hands as she, the formal prestidigitator, transforms one scenario into another. The poems have a marvelous naturalness that suits this wise, heart-tugging obeisance to the crux of our being." —Baron Wormser
