That first poem took my breath away. Just a stunning use of language, song, and space-time of now. The rest of the collection didn't connect as hard, but I'm so white and getting old, friends. I loved the tight lyricism coupled with an open strength of identity. I loved how each poem begged to be read aloud, not just a quiet reading, but a voiced event - the way poetry is meant to be experienced.
