Review # 1 was written on 2020-05-23 00:00:00 Alan Amberg this was something I needed. as a lover of gossip, obsessor of THINGS, childhood. I think we have similar personalities but I don't think this really means much especially since I'm only basing this off of the final, long poem. I wish he had said the names of the poets who were unkind to him. I gathered one from a simple google search, but the other description was too vague. Today i'm scared of hell, which feels relevant, not because this poem reminded me of hell or was hellish or anything.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-08-06 00:00:00 Ian Hulsey With some of his poems I found myself saying, "Is this a poem or is this prose?" particularly the final poem in the book. However, his poems stuck with me--I kept thinking about that last poem for at least two weeks after I was finished with the book--so he must have done something right. Trinidad has a series of sonnets in the middle of the book that are somewhat vulgar, but I didn't even realize they were rhyming until I was half way through them. His construction should be applauded.
