There's some powerful stuff here but most of it gets lost in a sea of bad to mediocre writing, some of which I'm hesitant to call poetry. Some intriguing ideas are weighed down by the attempt to present them as poems, with quirky line breaks and punctuation. It's really too bad because I did really like some of the writing and themes, but my takeaway was that this could've used A LOT of editing.
