There's also themes of racism, bigotry, etc. There are also the related slurs.
The nature poems are so fresh! I love the completely new to me imagery for nature.
The poverty poems are also completely relatable.
I'm not a huge fan of poems that jump all over the place like a lot of modern literary poetry does, but each poem is usually about some topic and mostly continues the same conversation. There's still a little bit of chaotic unrelated subject changes but very little.
