Along with the deep meaning, I loved the creativity that came with the formatting of several of these poems. It's not only a literary sense you're gathering but a visual one as well. My favorite line is from 'Acknowledgments': “& how many times have you loved me without my asking? how often have I loved a thing because you loved it? including me.”

This was my first Danez Smith collection. I'm looking forward to reading more of their work.
