Something Bright, Then Holes by Maggie Nelson

dark emotional funny reflective medium-paced

Really enjoyed this, especially the first half, titled ‘the canal sitters’, there was something very meditative about it. The rest of them poems were pretty good but nothing mind blowing. Content warning for a single ableist word which shocked me, especially given its context of a friend who has been paralysed, and the word basically compared this to her love life which was baffling and quite shocking!
