I read poetry for those moments where a poem just knocks the crap out of me (I have a violent relationship with good poems). This one had an immediate impact. It reminded me (at least in theme) to a lot of what I've read from Nick Flynn's Some Ether collection.
A well-deserved nod for this one. One of the better poems, I've read recently.
