As the title of this entry would suggest, I was none too impressed with my initial reading of this collection of poetry. Sometimes I am bang on right, sometimes, not so much. I'll stand by the bland feeling I got from Part I here, but Part II (the Little Commentaries poems) is awesome. I like "On Abstract Expressionism" {of course, then I had to go read about some painters}, "On First Line" {creative writing class anyone?), and "On Satisfaction" {about lists and things}. Part III's "Trying" reminded my of Brecken's Bathtub poems.
