I really like her, though I can't say I've read enough of her to really have a favorite. One of the things I like about her is that I don't find her too difficult to understand, but I don't find her poems to be obvious. That is to say, if I read her poem once I enjoy the writing and I get a feel for it - but I still feel like there's more to be tapped into. As I reread a couple of times, though, the poem comes more into focus. Her poetry doesn't ever seem to feel like it's eluding me. It merely takes time. If that makes any sense.

The pic-related poem is one of her easier, less complex poems, I suppose, though I still like it. It's certainly not one of her best though.

It's also, of course, nice to read poetry by such a talented writer who's still alive - that is, isn't from a time that seems to be at all remote or distant from the present, y'know?

I recently got into her poetry. This is certainly not my favorite poem - or my favorite of hers - but it's short and I like it.
