I say voice, because these poems are constantly addressing us, implicating us as readers, as they map a psychological pathway through love, desire and pain always thrumming just beneath the surface. It's a sophisticated voice and entirely contemporary, having learned as avidly from Confessionalism and the New York School as from social media. It's a voice that longs for enlargement and anonymity at the same time; Amy Saul-Zerby's poems themselves become places for hiding and places for being seen: 'i am everything that i'm not \/ when i am a poem in your hands.'\" \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e --Richie Hofmann, Second Empire\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Amy Saul-Zerby doesn't know what a clich  is.
