thank u sav for making this book half off!! I should've bought it at full price and read it earlier but better late than never.
also this is immensely better if u watch the youtube videos enough to be able to hear the poems being read in the author's voice in your head!

one i'll continue to return too. stunning.
don’t you feel it, when the sun casts shadows across
the ugliest parts of you, the senselessness, the stumbling,
our tipsy sleepwalk into ourselves, in the same instant
formed and found, and i blink the wet eyes that happen
to bore down to the marrow, looking for god, and discover
two-hundred off-white flecks of rubble, of what the earth
built with what was left of heaven.

savannah brown's words are truly beautiful, but sometimes too cryptic that it makes the poems difficult to hit home.

while questioning the fabric of our lives can often feel entirely theoretical, like a dive into the unknown, savannah brings the world disturbingly close, like being able to see the colour of the sky's gums. using vivid anatomical imagery, she puts the essence of the human experience under an x-ray -- watching cable cars go past in greenwich, or relating to some wayward parakeets, or thinking about the apocalyptic feeling of being with someone. as per usual, her writing is such a viscerally graphic journey, one that makes you uncomfortably aware of all the cells in your skin.
