From Zephyr’s Ankles is a collection of poems written by first-time author Rosa Nagle. The collection is filled with variety, yet the poems are uniformly unique in that they each combine the confessional” with the intellectual.” The personal tangles with the outside world, and vice versa, as in It is pointless, then…”: The moon cannot hear you. She is wrapped in silk and iron under which weight she tilts. The sky cannot hear you. She is too busy playing jacks with the planets, tossing them. It is pointless, then, to cry by the window, Mama. Sensual poems are presented with vivid imagery and metaphor. The poems strike a balance between emotion and thought: his bedroom is full of intoxication, the perfume of wet lilacs that have newly burst. Behind my bay window, the lilac bush has grown into the house, seeped into the cracks in the foundation like sinuous tongues.Nagle, Rosa is the author of 'From Zephyr's Ankles ' with ISBN 9781424102167 and ISBN 1424102162.
