My first chapbook! This was basically one poem. I haven't read much poetry since high school, so I'm no expert, but I really enjoyed the rhythm of it. I read through a couple times and I definitely want to read through again, maybe even out loud to really get a feel for it. seeks like the type of prose meant to be vocalized.
