Many of Light's poem's are tributes to the great dancers and musicians of the Graham, Duncan, Tchaikovsky, Chopin. "Who could she turn to—There was no answer / but to move in measure, like a dancer." This debut includes sonnets, villanelles, and other surprising, lively, innovative forms. An important feminist debut in the new formalist tradition.
