LEARN YOUR POETRY PEOPLE!!
First of all, I love this. It is an amazing feministic poetry that I'll never forget. Her down times, high times, sad times. She Amanda places so much emotion into each line. I could relate to a few things she says. While I couldn't to many others, I could feel the emotion she had while writing this. She smiles, cries, laughs. I can feel it all.
"oh, i bet you regret making an enemy out of me."
While I'm not a fan of poetry, this is definitely one to hit a spot.
The types of poetry I notice throughout reading are Blank Verse, Free Verse, and Elegy.
That is what people don't understand. Poetry isn't always long stanzas, long verses, and long paragraphs. No. Poetry can be one sentence. Can be one word. Can be a page long.
"my boy? he's even better than the books."
I loved this and will forever love this.
Relatable, Lovable, and Heartbreaking.
Pick it up and you'll see.
