Blue blue blue blue blue blue blue. There are so many synonyms and shades of blue that it became maddening to see the word “blue” in almost every poem.

Interesting subject matter and brief history lesson. A very good jumping off point for those who want to explore the world of 20th century Russia but didn’t really know who to start with.

Also, free-form
poetry.
It’s just sentences
broken
into seemingly random chunks
of text.
A point to it
I
do not
see.
