In Singing in the Dark Times, Margaret Corvid writes, ‘I’m just a poet, no Cassandra me,’ but what is it to be just a poet? Corvid incorporates the gifts of many poets who have come before her. There is something of Emily Dickinson’s deep playfulness in poems such as ‘School’, Robert Frost’s close appreciation for nature in poems such as, ‘All My Favourite Shows’, and Philip Larkin’s acerbic wit throughout. Unlike the people of Troy, I hope we are wise enough to keep listening to Corvid for years to come. Shaindel Beers, author of Secure Your Own Mask, finalist for the Oregon Book Award
