"and may we always stay grounded, rooted. our feet planted firmly onto the earth." (

what terrifies me most is how we
foam at the mouth with envy
when other succeed
but sigh in relief
when they are failing

our struggle to
celebrate each other is
what's proven most difficult
in being human

Too fragmented for me to enjoy. I don't mind tumblr style poetry but this was just a mess. Not sure why it's been so popular, there's better poets out there. (

I didn't read any reviews prior to reading this book and I'm so glad I'm not the only one who is underwhelmed. That is all. (

This whole book talks about some pretty big topics but I think the author did it in a really good way. The poems were quick and easy to read while also being full of heavy material. It was interesting to read such a short book while also feeling like it was really long. I'm looking forward to reading her other work! (
