"The flowing, associative poems of
The First Amelia
sing with confidence and travel through the veins of memory, family, and the landscapes of Colima. Amelia Rodriguez conjures images of sparring hawks, crushed rubies, trees glassed with ice, a snared kite, and other wondrous and unique visions. She converses with the men and women of her past, and at the center is a twinned self, "two Amelias hovering / above the turning earth," that is hungry and ever-present.
