‘What’s the use of poetry? / You ask. Well, here’s a start: / It’s anecdotal evidence / About the human heart’

Eh. Not my favourite. I tend to enjoy more freeverse poems and poems that are longer / more substantial. I braced to hate this when I saw it was full of short poems with strict meters and rhyme schemes but it was alright. I actually found a lot I liked in this but ultimately it just wasn’t for me. I do get why people would love this though.

it’s a shame that this is the only wendy cope collection i can get my hands on because it’s so short!! gimme more!!

favs include: the orange, two cures for love, some more light verse, names, men talking, being boring, he tells her, leaving
