Sweet, Young, & Worried by Blythe Baird
5.0
Sweet, Young, & Worried is simply stunning. This is the type of collection where you take pictures of the pages because it's so beautiful you want to share it with everyone. Poem after poem left me feeling that way.
Blythe Baird is so talented and certainly a poet to follow forever. The way she manages to perfectly capture so many intense emotions that are typically so hard to articulate. But Blythe finds the words and expresses so much intensity in her honesty. If you like poetry, read this immediately.
Some of my favorites:
Sad Girls Club
What a Body Inherits
Guilt Doesn't Love Here Anymore
Taking My Mother to a Gay Bar
