I live for this kind of words.' Bright Dead Things buoyed me in this dismal year. I am in no hurry to stop believing we are supposed

Immigration, cross the river, the blood of us. It didn’t matter what worlds they were under, My most favorite part here is The Whale & The Waltz Inside It. This is the most heartfelt for me. What I don’t like about it though is that sometimes I got more focused on deciphering her words than feeling it. I like how it’s making me think thoroughly. Lastly, Ada started this part with the poem, Adaptation. Her words are sometimes too deep to comprehend and I like it. Here is Oh Please, Let It Be Lightning. My favorite in part 3. “ the neon glow was a real star, gleaming in its dying, like us all, like us all.” I find this really liberating somehow. But anyway, she talked about the neon flashing sign above the strip joint. Is there a right and wrong interpretation of art? Guess not. Going to the third, it’s the poem entitled Glow. I’m not sure if I understood it right. This is my favorite piece from this part, Field Building. Take them off guard.” Her words are something. The second part started with a poem called Bellow, “ tell them-crazy sky and stars between-tell them you didn’t come to disturb the night air and throw a fit, then get down in the dark and do it.” Personally, I think of this like “do it when people least expect you to.

Each doesn’t have any title on it, but I think it serves its purpose right.Īda started the first part with the poem, How To Triumph Like A Girl. The book is divided in four parts: 1, 2, 3, and 4. Do we really just live to die? Interesting. I was caught the moment I saw “the dangerous thrill of living in a world you know you have to leave one day”. As if saying “endings bring new beginnings”. I like how the title is dead yet Ada gave life to it. HAHAHAHA! Poetry books are probably the fastest reads.īright Dead Things examines the chaos that is life, the dangerous thrill of living in a world you know you have to leave one day, and the search to find something that is ultimately “disorderly, and marvelous, and ours.” Also, this is me cheating on my Reading Challenge. I write poems more than I read them but because I want to explore more styles, I’m starting to read as much as I can. This is my first time doing a review of poetry book.
