WREST gave this group a lot of physical struggle: Debbie turns the last marble rye into a grocery-store prize fight, Diana makes gathering eggs sound like combat, and Lari sends a greeting at the hilltop straight into a struggle for power. auntie jj gets especially good mileage from a difficult six-word set, with autograph seekers literally wrestling for access.
Elsewhere, WREST becomes more psychological or figurative—trying to reclaim control, preserve a sensory memory, or pull victory out of apparent loss. The strongest poems gave the verb something tangible to push against. That mattered with a word this forceful: WREST worked best when resistance was already built into the scene.
