She was so f*cking precise. I so admire that. Nothing out of place, over or under said; crafted for the ease of the reader eyes on the page as well as for their inner ear; in almost perfect control of the mounting and abating energies within each poem; and deceptively brilliant, able to be read on all sorts of different levels. I swear, just reading a few of her poems, really taking them in (she spent like forever on each lol), you become a better poet.
Anyway...babbling.
You can't hate me more than I hate myself. I win.
