A review by laurenkara
The Chaos of Longing by K.Y. Robinson
5.0
there is a universe
swirling inside you.
you have to learn to be
your own earth,
wind, fire
and water
you are a natural
phenomenon-
not a natural disaster
this collection is full of so many beautiful poems. there's so many important themes discussed. i wasn't sure whether to go with 4 or 5 stars, but decided on 5 because of the poem i quoted and because i have a bunch of annotations saved in my kindle.
this collection is free on kindle for the next few days and i HIGHLY encourage you go grab a copy.
trigger warnings: sexual abuse (and there's lots of poems that are about sex, it is all consensual and more about sex positivity which is so good!!!!, but i know some ppl get uncomfortable about it so just a heads up!!)
