In this debut collection only one poem goes to a second page. To me this says Hershman gets to the point and spares the reader unnecessary waffle. If a short poem delivers the message, there's no point in adding more.
You can see the influence of science in her writing and she does reveal some of the influences and sources of her poems. Once you know the influence of Missing You for example and what is missing the dynamic of the poem changes. This collection is whimsical and thought provoking in equal measure without a wasted word.

I agree, poetry shouldn't ramble on or it loses the point. I've had a look at this book on Amazon and will try a sample
