Brilliant! So full of love. Alternatively funny, heartbreaking, and moving. A well-crafted collection I highly recommend to all lovers of poetry!
Some fav quotes:
“A prison is a plantation made of stone and steel.”
“I would love you even if you killed God.”
“How often have I loved a thing because you loved it, including me.”
“At the end of the world, let there be you. My world.”
