Querying the relations between writing and other forms of action, Wong seeks a shift in consciousness through poems that bespeak a range of responses to our world: anger, protest, anxiety, bewilderment, hope and love. In her words, \"the next shift may be the biggest one yet, the union of the living, from mosquito to manatee to mom.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForage\u003c\/i\u003e is accompanied by marginalia, Chinese characters and photos that give depth to the political context in which most of Wong's poems are situated.
