5.0

For as casual as my love for poetry is, I am a real snob about it. See I’m an Arab, and I wholeheartedly believe there is no poetry quite like Arabic poetry. The sublime beauty of the language lends itself to equally sublime poetry. In fact, poetry is like the Arabs’ miracle in a way. So I’m a real snobby snooty person about poetry.
But..
This collection was quite alright. Quite beautiful actually. Richard Armitage reading these poems helped, but it’s just good poetry.
Modern English poetry has been such a disappointment, except for Bo Burnham’s book.
But there’s a reason these poems became classic I suppose. Good collection. I enjoyed it.
