I like the idea of telling longer tales in short lines of poetry. The vastness and seemingly abstract nature of poetry is one reason I don't enjoy it. However, this seems a bit different and should make a good read. Thanks for your concise review.

Some poems in this collection actually made my mind go really far that is what I actually loved about the book.
And how little but deep his words were, soul cutting I must say

I love that this author covers such a wide variety of topics. I’m not usually one to read dark humor though. I’m sure there are many who will enjoy these poems. This is a great in depth review!

I’m not really a fan of poetry, so I’ll probably have to pass. I like that there are poems about so many topics though.

These short poems are so precise and to the point. The tone is suitable for the title. This is really great work. The review even explains them even better. Thank you for the review.

A book of short poems on a variety of topics sounds interesting. It I like that the poems cover many heavy topics and also lighter ones to appeal t preference. Thanks for the informative review.

I'm curious about what Osmani's poem says about gender. And when you described his poem or Osmani's writing style like not the usual poems with rhymes and measurements, it reminded me of Lang Leav's.
