God I Feel Modern Tonight: Poems from a Gal about Town by Catherine Cohen
emotional
funny
reflective
4.5
I don’t want to be your girlfriend
I just want to be a student of english literature
wandering home late drunk in autumn
and anyways I’m an awful roommate
I don’t recycle don’t repeat that
the other day
I was dry-swallowing my birth control pill
as I citi biked up the williamsburg bridge
and I was like okay…
I guess I am the voice of my generation
this collection made me laugh out loud more than once. very fun and relevant. the style isn’t usually the type I’m impressed by or seek out in poetry, but Cohen satirises and plays with it in a very entertaining way.
