that Robin R. Rabii used to explain his views. He sounds like an optimist. Congratulations to him

Let's start by this: I rate the poetry 3 of 4.
I think it is rarely where one can find themes like racism, homosexuality, religion, and sex all put into one collection of poetry. To find one, for me, is a great achievement. Hence, by having all these issues tackled, the poet succeeds in taking my attention and time. Secondly, What defines poetry is the image. Rabii is good as he cries his poetry. He does all the figures of speech with such genuineness and cleverness, to the extent, we forget sometimes to connect these issues with ther presence in time. We are driven, isntead, into a world of imagination, of excellence. We start feeling that smoothness of the human, and what it is to be human.
I do recommend to have a deep view into Rabii's The Poems of Robin R. Rabii.

Yes to that comment. The author carried his feeling writing a bit too far. He could have done it as an epilogue. The preface, thank you's, and introduction could disconnect, instead of connect, the reader. Is that what poetic license is all about?CaitlynLynch wrote:Love poetry! I was disappointed when in the AMazon sample, the preface and introductions were so long-winded, the sample didn't actually include any of the poems. I think that would definitely put off potential buyers who would like to sample the actual poetry before purchasing.
