Dissolve by Sherwin Bitsui

4.0

This is the first collection of Bitsui I have read and I was impressed. His poems are super rich in imagery based on punctuation and body parts, which I really loved.

His poems aren’t ones that you can read quickly. They take a while to digest and think about, but they are very rewarding and powerful to read.

That being said, I know that this collection isn’t for everyone. I would recommend it to anyone who loves to analyze and take a deeper look into poetry.

He explores themes of addiction, the earth, and the past and future.
