Rein It In is a brilliant pamphlet that examines freedom of youthful self-indulgence and recklessness as well as the inevitable reckoning that can come with that. There is something thrillingly immediate about these poems that makes Heloise de Satge's words feel like they are written about events still happening. de Satge deftly captures moments in time that are both personal and universal to anyone who has ever felt a sense of disorientation and uncertainty when coming of age. The writing is unapologetically political and speaks to us in a language that is both relatable and startlingly fresh. There's a sense of freedom in the way the poet's voice leaps between slang and proper language, and the effect is a poetry of vitality, of life lived and breathed. These poems demand our attention.
