The inventor of the graham cracker, a heliotropic vagina, Rosalie Butterbox and her mystery-lover all populate the stage of Bubble Opera-but the music in the lines, their sly rhymes, their vibrating syllables, and the poet's refusal to indulge (in the face of great loss and disaster) in one moment of self-pity: that's what steals the show. It's a rare thing to find such good humor in poems as smart and hard-won as these. Brava, Janie Fink!
