Description

A thoroughly enjoyable approach to poetry, these unique verses will make you want for more! Self-described as "part anagram, part rebus, part riddle," each poem starts with a word. Underneath, different letters from that word are arranged to create new words that describe the poem's subject. While it might take you a second to understand the words' arrangement due to their unique graphic approach, they are deeply satisfying to understand, and are often more insightful than you might think, such as my personal favorite, Constellation. 44 pgs, pb. ~ Laura
