Had a little time to read yesterday at lunch, which feels so rare now, unfortunately. Skeets's poetry is harsh but beautiful. I find his word choices so fascinating but haven't been able to read more than a few pages at a time because it's so intense.

I won't be expecting much of myself, but hoping to get back in the habit of signing in here regularly. And my youngest is turning one-year-old tomorrow! Where does the time go?

ju.ca.no Lunch reading time is great! I Usually never get that unfortunately😕 hope your little one has a great first birthday!! 4y

Visceral and sparse poems, with violence between bodies and landscape, highly recommended. Out yesterday from Milkweed
