emotional hopeful reflective sad fast-paced

3.0

Most poems are surface level, unoriginal, 3-5 lines to describe one feeling or thought with no subtlety. However, I do give an extra star for the handful of poems that are sufficiently well crafted and intentional. In these, she makes use of literary devices nicely and does invoke a strong response from the reader. I connected with the subject material and blew through it in one short sitting, so it felt worthwhile albeit not life changing.
