Fink’s poems are an invitation to a dance: they spur a conversation with the future, the past, and the present. I enjoy seeing how the anxieties of antecedents play out: one visual allusion leads to another, one set of topics and tropes leads to thinking of other authors, and so on.–Susan Smith Nash

Everyone in our family, whoever that is, is a Martian; now we need to listen to what they are saying. Tom Fink does that and more.–John Yau

Tom Fink’s poetry catches the patter of patterns breaking down and meaning migrating from one sphere and lexicon to another. His words jab and jabber, sparkle and snarl with ‘talismanic allure.’ But more than just playful, he’s also an agitator, disassembling our political clichs to expose their insanity.–Elaine Equi
