I like poetry--I do!! I don't read it often, but I appreciate it when I do and I used to write some of my own when I was younger. I don't think poetry always has to rhyme, and can appreciate free form pieces for the totality of the message, but this collection did NOTHING for me! I was so disappointed because it was the Oregon Book Awards Poetry Winner for 2015.
Here is a sample:
"You do not love me
I knew it when I entered the duomo capped in mint green
at the center of town
Jesus hung like a piece of toilet paper
Night opening its black flower
Every statue had bullet-sized holes in its feet"
Okay, I like the second-to-last line. But seriously. How did this win?… (meer)
