Sharks in the Rivers by Ada Limón
4.0
As usual, this is not a review. More like a set of thoughts and quotes that others can read if they feel like it.
Birds. I expected fish and sharks, but received so many beautiful uses of birds. (My inner-birder was pleased.)
"The air is unwound with bird/and you are not lost in the least,/but a deliberate deserter...
This fevered mess of world/is well-done. Lean in and nuzzle/its exceptional need to be yours."--"Ways to Ease Your Animal Mind"
&
"World, turn all you want to,/faster even. I've come to like the way the breeze feels/as it rips me limb from limb."-- "World Versus Girl"
