Some of this really resonated with me and I really liked those parts but other portions I found myself just skimming over. Will likely read again many times and I do now have some favorite poems from the book. Different poems speak to you at different points in life. Magic trick 001, a plain truth, on releasing light, and what I told the doctor the second time are great
A couple of quite impressive poems, amidst a wider set of well-written but (to me) quite meh stuff.
I had high expectations because of how acclaimed Sabrina Benhaim is, but the poems in this book that I'd heard her speak were only good because I had heard her speak them. They didn't work as paper poems, and the other poems in here just didn't blow me away. Meh.
