."..we should read this volume as the revelation of the consciousness of a woman and a poet, trying to deal with a past 'to change the future of it.' The poem 'Fist' directly addresses this idea as the speaker imagines the fist of a child, cupped in two adult hands, and pried open, finger by finger, to release pent up anger. The hand then becomes a poem presented to us, 'spread wide open in a precise/gesture of giving, or welcome, /its fate clear and empty, like the sky, /like the blue blue sky above the Square.'"
