I enjoyed these poems, especially the variety in each one’s structure and subject matter. It's a really creative, emotive collection all about a range of experiences from the perspective of black women, showcasing strength, resolve, pain, and vulnerability.

Here’s a snippet from one of my favourites, “Strongwoman”:

When Dennis stole my research
for a boardroom showdown, I didn’t 
doubt the strength of my words
to humble him, I wove my voice
into a low even tone, lashed him calmly
question after question and didn’t relent 
when his answers lost their way, not until
he conceded the game I never agreed to play.
