Our Numbered Days by Neil Hilborn

"I am concerned
that if I begin taking
medication I will no longer
be able to write poems."

I felt like all the poems were written by anxiety or depression or bipolar disorders and Neil rarely made an appearance behind all those "mental disorders that I (he) call friends, and the mental disorders"*.

*an excerpt of Fabric Swatches, Paint Samples.

I fell in love with some poems like "You Can Look" and "Joey" and "OCD" which were sooooOo good. I didn't really understand some of the other poems, and I should probably read this book again.

I read the first book for this trilogy, and so I found many poems that were in the first book in this one too. I thought "ugh I already read this??" but then I reread them and I was reminded of how good they were.

some of my favorite ones are: The Train Hit Me And I Didn't Feel It, The Truth As It Currently Stands, The Grand Distraction, and The Whole World Is Watching.

this book isn't just for you, it's for everyone.
