This beautiful collection illuminates the poet's journey from girlhood to widowhood. Still, Papa, somehow you conveyed to me/quiet is where you go to get soul things out she writes in Tough Guy, a childhood memory poem. In Catbird, the title poem of the book, humor interrupts grieving...I loved her once/when I saw her lipstick hidden under the pillow./Like Marlene Dietrich in Dishonored,/applying lipstick before the firing squad, /no pale mouth would greet eternity./Barbara Alfaro's poems have appeared in various journals including The Blue Mountain Review, Variant Literature and Poet Lore.
