I love the most how he makes new words and shapes language to his particular context.
Weed-surge, watershine, thigh-moulded, death-drawn, hell-hung heart-screen. The list goes on and on.
One of the many passages marked and savored like a hard candy:
“Love is more talked about than surrendered to. Lie low
Meng Chiao advises-
beauty too close will ruin your life.”
A collection to come to once and again and again as life turns our eyes and hearts in ever different directions.

This book taught me a story about how our poet laureate once had an all-night ragin boner when he was nine:
"Nine years old! My dick! All night!"
You should read this book.
