The first time I read this poem I was all set to hate it. It is an unapologetic love poem complete with all the syrupy sweetness and it is an excellent example of a writer that has studied poetry long enough to know the rules as he tosses them aside to great effect. The imagery is interspersed just enough and it is visceral and real. The language and breaks accent the unapologetic love.
I have read this poem at least 100 times and I am still discovering things I love about it. I will definitely read it 100 more.
