4.0

This is my second experience of Emily's poetry, her first collection Pelican was absolutely mesmerizing. This collection was shorter than the first but still captivating and succinct. The poems flow easily from one to the other, each being unique and the imagery was developed progressively.

Celeris relates to a pony/horse in Greek Mythology, and the horse imagery was used constantly throughout intertwined with love, rejection, sex, inferiority, desire and freedom.
