Postcolonial Love Poem by Natalie Diaz

I need to sit with and return to this collection. There was so much beneath the surface of each word/line and so many allusions I didn't quite pick up on or comprehend. It's certainly not an easy read, but it was a worthwhile one.
My favorite poems in the collection were: Manhattan Is a Lenape Word, American Arithmetic, They Don't Love You Like I Love You, The First Water Is the Body, exhibits from The American Water Museum, and Isn't the Air Also a Body, Moving?
