I'm a really big poetry fan. Billy Merrell speaks to me. The poems interconnect to form a poetic memoir of his early years. Some are funny, some heartbreaking. All wonderful.

I read this for my Adolescent Literature class. While I appreciate the poetic ability, I did not find myself being extremely interested. I really wanted to enjoy it, but I also think the fact that I can be very picky about poetry held me back.
The poem "Because" was a favorite though. It was very raw and emotional, but not in a "I thought this out and picked the perfect words" kind of way. It was right from the heart.
