[ryan wilkey · Rating 4 out of 5]

used this book in my poetry workshop back in college. (i need to pull this one out again and give some poems a reread.) there was one poem in particular that i remember being incredibly vivid and well-written, and for the life of me i can’t seem to remember the poet or title of the poem.

hmmm, where is that book on my shelf?
