  de Burine's poetry is built almost entirely on imagery, where metaphor is poetic structure, and the freedom of the vision itself becomes a source of meaning. The legacy of the Surrealists is immediately apparent. Susan Wicks - Introduction. Underlying the remarkable combination of image and pattern in these poems, there is also a recognisable human context - childhood, intimate relationships, aging, loss, AIDS, the Niverais landscape of her youth, the bars of the city, the town hall are all present.
