 it is kind of crazy how much I can relate to Chuuya through his poetry. he is renowned for his beautiful, haunting imagery and song-like flow, and though this edition had to sacrifice flow, it very much made up for it by preserving the imagery. there were very few poems which didn’t resonate; in fact most had at least one line that truly struck me. how was he so good at putting into words the big and terrifying emotions I have never been able to describe? this may be the collection that reignites my adoration for poetry.
