of course, she is an excellent poet in my eyes, like in many poets ' eyes. her poems are short, and humerous.
I always compare her with Roberbet Frost.

She is a lesbian, and has been with her partern for 30 years. I am moved by this long term relationship.

My sigh is about how long a man can be with a women?

A bitter pill
doesn't need
to be swallowed
to work.Just
reading your name
on the bottle
does the trick.
As though there
were some anti-
placebo effect.
As though the
self were eager
to be wrecked.
