I really tried to understand this poetry book. I even read some of the poems more than once. Unfortunately most of them didn't resonate with me. I could pretend that at the end of the book I understand the overall meaning of the poems within this collection but I really couldn't. However some lines in some poems kinda hit hard because how relatable those were with the real life situation, even in country so far from the US.

If our county were any bigger than a sitcom set, they would all herd lemminglike into the rough spun monochrome of gas stations, outlet malls, & plyboard huts where you can rent VHS tapes rewound by mice & silverfish. ~61%

I am sure it's 100% me problem why this book is not for me. I believe many people would find this book intriguing.
Nevertheless thank you to Ian Hall, EastOver Press, and NetGalley for the ARC.
