pickI‘m going to have to reread these poems at least once more to be able to write anything like a crevice. But, wow, the middle section here hit me like a ton of bricks, not just making poetry out of trauma but seeming to implicate the action of doing so. There‘s a lot here. I need to dig deeper before I say anything else. This, here, is not doing the poems justice.
Looking forward to spending some time with these poems.
