This poetry collection was a really good collection of some of the poems that were important in the year 2022. How much I enjoyed each poem was strongly dependent on the poem/author itself, so it's hard to make a very cohesive review, but I found it quite inspiring to use for my own writings. 

In terms of content warnings, they drastically differ based on the poem itself and this unfortunately may be something you have to look into on a poem by poem basis.

Thanks to NetGalley for an ARC. Always love being exposed to poets I haven’t before but not that many poems connected to me in this Cole room
