This was a great confessional. It was written nicely, neatly, and convincingly.

...I was sick of thinking
About you this morning but
I was listening to Bob Dylan and Leonard
Cohen in order to think about
You for literary purposes.
When I feel nothing for a person
I get scared I'm losing my humanity
And that turning cold means
My heart's been botoxed; we're
All fucked.
--p. 84

extremely enjoyable, but falls into a certain category of New York aughts literature. I liked it quite a bit and finished reading it in about an hour, but it may not be for you

It was bright as fuck.
Discussing interpersonal
Relations makes me tired and
Feel like an asshole. I really
Liked you.

A poetry book about the quest of one woman to find herself after a dreadful heart break. Reines used to book to find where she belongs, who she is, and what the prior relationship meant. Expressed in views about an eclectic mixture of events, art, and literature. This is a book about finding oneself and having the heart of a lion. This is a poem directed at a former lover.
