I feel like I've travelled and come home again
For starters, Tierneys work has always been beautiful and loving and genuine and this is nothing different. I read this in three sittings, and I would've happily read it in one if I hadn't been struggling with my own poetry at the time -- I had to stop whenever this book inspired me and restarted my creativity on projects I couldn't figure out, and I'm super grateful to Tierney and September for that.
I absolutely love the forms used and there's this particularly long poem in the middle - 18 minutes long, according to kindle - that absolutely floored me. It's surprising when all of a sudden I'm reading a novella written in poetry, but honestly it was filled with such incredible images and nebulous characters, all so full of love, that I couldn't put it down.
There were a few typos (calling Angel Miela after she's changed her name or general things that are easy to miss) but overall this was a poetry book filled with love and emotion and forgiveness and I'm so happy I took the time to read it.
