A Collection of Poems 2002 edition

The minute we are born, we begin to die. Tina Ronk's poetry consists of this and other such insights-often uncomfortable, yet illuminating into the transcience of life, the constancy of pain and the utter futility of living in the past. In a language that is simple and communicates directly with the reader, she speaks of the agony of battling personal demons in a manner that cannot but move the reader. Be it a plea to God, or an affirmation to the self, it is the anguish of a sensitive soul that comes across constantly in this collection of poems.
