English
Description
Heirloom Language is full of poems about life and dying, growing up and growing old; about how being loved transcends endings, and how sometimes anger and irony are ways of expressing love.

In order to move ahead effectively, one must grieve that which has been lost; yet, rarely does our society allow appropriate time, space, and encouragement to grieve. Wright's poetry deals with various grief experiences-loss of health status, as in her own current situation; relationships; homes; and even distance grief...
