For poetry, we oft delve in the deeper places of our psyche. We choose subjects that we may have difficulty addressing directly. We write around the subject, we use figurative language. In this collection we get such a variety of easily accessible poems, a panoply of moods and modes in which we see the poet joyous, sad, despairing ,confused, vexed, lonely, frisky, larky, stroppy, thoughtful, abashed, bemused, leery, insouciant, chuffed, chagrined, goofy, timid, outraged, wracked, frazzled, beleaguered, resigned, frivolous, and need I go on? Each poem gives us a glimpse of what it may be like to be inside her skin. We are never more naked than when we write. She is Eve minus the fig leaves.-Doc Sigerson
