This was a book required for a class I took as part of a Creative Writing minor. Either we never actually used it, or we were given one poem from it that I never read. Regardless, I finally decided to give it a read.

Reviewing poetry is hard. How do you give voice not only to the visceral emotional reaction you get reading it, but the intention of the poet as well? I'll just say that this was a good collection and I enjoyed it. Perhaps I'll have more if I read through it a second time, something quantifiable.

There's a lot of snakes in here. ( )
