Batchelor uses her poetry to share her voice as a working-class woman growing up in Wales. Her poetry serves as a platform to challenge gender roles as she discusses politics (the Methyr Uprising, the Aberfan Disaster, the Frognoch Internment Camp) and the societal expectations of women. “On the Wild Side” is a vulnerable and raw look into the reality of working class families.
