Book Chat: Poem Spotlight
10:00 AM
Welcome All!
A few weeks ago, a friend of mine had lend me a copy of "Whiskey Words and a Shovel II" by R.H. Sin. I would say that it has a similar aesthetic style and format to "Milk and Honey" by Rupi Kaur. One of the main ideas the author focuses on is love. I'm not one to relate someone else experiences with love but it was pretty good overall. It's a very quick read like you could literally read it in an hour. Today, I'm going to be sharing my favorite parts from the book!
Yup, we all fall in love with what we see rather than the real thing. It's all an illusion until you know what's real.
I am a true believer that a good cry could really make you feel better. It's so overwhelming when you're holding in all that emotion and displacing it where it's not needed. The consequences of storing all of the sadness could take a direct toll on your own comfort.
In the end, you have to look out for yourself. This is especially true if you're in a relationship that's keeping you down.
This piece reminds me of a mother bird teaching a baby bird how to fly. A person has to fall a few times before they can get back up to move on.
The sudden action of the speaker just instantly stood out to me. The meaning behind the poem really knocked the wind out my chest which made me fall in love with it. This one, by far, is my favorite piece out of the whole entire book.
I don't even have to explain this one because it's pretty self-explanatory. One thing I've noticed about the book is that it's very simple and straightforward. I think the author says things that are common sense but rewords them in different ways.
If you're looking for a short read, then I would suggest you check it out. I would definitely check out books similar to Whiskey Words and a Shovel II in the future. On a related note, to read about more book related stuff you could check out Book Chat: Wuthering Heights!
