A review by mejisilliterate
the witch doesn't burn in this one by Amanda Lovelace
1.0
My hateritis is flaring up. I will never call this poetry and I don’t think it’s worth the paper it’s printed on. My fault for even buying it, I was an idiot and only read the title and the dedication (both of which I thought were good) before spending 20 goddamn dollars on this. But, do not fear! I plan to use the 95% blank pages as a new sketchbook.
Let me just say, if you want to write poetry to be published, you should probably acquaint yourself with actual poetic devices and what they do before going ham with writing a sentence then inserting a bunch of random line breaks everywhere. Honestly I feel bad for the people who think this “poetry” is the best, because real poetry can do *so* much more than this.
And don’t get me started on the subject matter. Very white feminist.
