Interpretation To Books The Dogs I Have Kissed

I saw the poetry section in the goodreads choice awards 2015 and decided I'll read all the books.

This collection of poems started very powerfully, then became a bit tiresome with saltiness, knees, mouth, wetness and similar recurring motives. In every poem, I knew what's going to be mentioned or written about.

That is my only objection and cast aside, a pretty good book that I enjoyed. I'll copy some of my favourite parts below:

12% [...] I learned the word fuck from my mother's tongue,
as in fucker, he fucking left me,
he fucking left.

I learned the word no from myself.
From somewhere deep int he pit of me,
it rose like some ancient thing
and slunk its way out of my throat,
heavy-handed.

Will I ever let this guard down long enough
to learn anything new?

Fuck no.


20% There will always be men
who have fishhooks for fingers.
There will always be women
with wet, sharp mouths.
It is okay to get caught up in them.

It is not okay to drown.

Don't you ever let another human
being tear you apart.
Remember that you have claws
and teeth, too.

Remember that you are better off

whole.

This is kind of cool poetry. First few pages was really good, I mean stories you've kind of relate to. Some though I find very adult-content ones, like its so unrelatable for me since I think some of these poems happen to the author but it is quite entertaining to read in one sitting. One line that really struck me was this "Dont you ever let another human being tear you apart. Remember that you have claws and teeth, too. Remember that you are better off whole."That really is quite good and this

12 poems referencing teeth. "There were flowers blooming between my teeth...""Strangers all stuck up in my teeth because I'm heart-hungry.""Roll over in the bed and bare your neck to teeth""Tired of fighting but still fighters, we took to your sheets armed with skin and teeth.""And you with your lungfuls of hope, teeth like slick wet promises every time you opened your mouth.""It is easier to make myself the monster, to snap and bite and run and hide. It is easy to bare my teeth."...And umpteen

I had just gotten out of my organic chemistry class and I sat on the bench that I always sit on to read. I thought, "I'll read a couple poems and then head back to my apartment." I couldn't stop reading it. I was lost in the pages. I missed my bus and I read the entire thing in one sitting. This book is full of heartbreak and bitterness all intricately laced together by a fury of informality and raw beauty. Pure human emotions that we all can relate to. Trista made me feel that weakness isn't

It started off nicely but became quite repetitive.

The writing was good, the poems were nice but it was too many things my single ass couldnt

Dont you ever let another human being tear you apart. Remember that you have claws and teeth, too.I maybe liked ten poems in this whole collection, if that. My favourite is For Brittanie not only did it use imaginative metaphors but had such a strong empowering message behind it. I wanted the rest of the collection to be like that but it started getting really repetitive for example the words teeth and wet were used a lot, it was okay the first two times but Id have preferred other descriptions.
