INDESCRIPTIBLE ⭐️

If for only the poems "Productivity Anxiety" (which resonated so deeply I felt like a gong), "Stillness" and "The art will come", this whole book is worth a read. The first chapter focuses on personal, but all-too-common, tragedy and abuse and was difficult to read for its pain and emotion. Rupi Kaur is an excellent poet, saying as much as possible about the human experience in so few words.

I mean how do you even rate a collection of poetry? Rating poetry is like rating someone’s feelings, which you just should not do. When I bought this book I assumed it was a spin on self isolation and quarantining, but now, after reading it - I think she is focusing on our body being our temple - how our body is an actual home. Her poems do not rhyme (which I do not mind) and her style is odd - she writes in a statement form. But I felt like I was reading her diary - reading moments of brain spills, knowledge drops, and her immediate thoughts!

This book has great poems in it, but I wouldn’t say it is as strong as a whole as her earlier collections.
