Grit: Poems by Silas Denver Melvin by silas denver melvin

reflective

fast-paced
5.0
This poetry book did not disappoint! I followed Silas on Instagram (@sweatermuppet) before he published this and so I was already familiar with his work, but this book blew me out of the water. Would definitely recommend for any poetry lovers, especially if you're part of the LGBTQ+ community.
My favorite poems in the book are "The Apocalypse Will Never Be As Advertised," "Let Dead Dogs Lie," and "Extinction."
