"We're full."
We're full. No others need apply.
We've limited the sky.
The songs are sung, the stories told.
The faithful sheep are in the fold.
All measures indicate
that we can calibrate our hate.

On the flyleaf, poet Jay Parini says that Rose's poems are "exquisitely alert to the dilemmas and problems, the agonies and injustices, of this hard time in the world. In his poems he finds a language adequate to our times. He speaks up and speaks back, and his poems quicken with a sense of engagement."
