Synopsis

No Certificate On The Wall further reflects the person Susan Ambrosino isa person who feels the "pull of hue" and a "bubble of ideas rising up from a whirlpool of opinions and inner voices." She is someone who sits in a "cushioned chair to think about a monstrous fears that hang from the rafters of each day."She looks into faces as well as "cracked windshields," she stands in her own "puddle of fear," a "different message in a different bottle," wondering where the "ball came from and where it is going." She writes about the "backpack of worries" she carries on her shoulders and the "shopping bag of incandescent clothes she hides under her stairs" while "carrying an eight foot fence down the road in the wind" and "flipping a switch on forgotten knowledge." Susan Ambrosino relishes her own voice, her own music, her own "silent pond," her own "shiny pearl mystery." No Certificate On The Wall is a logical sequel and continuing statement in the vein of Teenage Woman Ancient Wife.

About the Author

After finishing her first book, Teenage Woman Ancient Wife, Susan Ambrosino opened a new notebook and began to write No Certificate On The Wall. "There was nothing else to do, I had to keep on writing," she says, "it's what gets me through the day." She began to write because, "writing poetry is how I make sense of the world. My poems are about my life, my family, nature and everything I see around me."
