Very literary and meandering, this book is very much like a sluggish creek to me. I guess fittingly, pushing through some of it is like sitting at the bottom of a pool. All the same it was nice to relax down there, a little bit at a time. Not really a one sitting book.

I feel really bad about giving a book of poetry one star, but I honestly did not like this collection at all. I should have DNF'd it after 5 poems, when I realized they were not hitting for me, but I needed this book for a book challenge. So I pushed on and read them all. Of the 56 poems in this collection, I liked 5. And honestly, I think I only really liked 2, but understood 5. The rest I didn't get at all. Obscure language, crazy spacing, the pacing felt wrong a lot of the time. I'm no poem expert, so this is probably all just me. Sorry.
