CHAPTER

The Importance of Narrative

I want to talk about how this poem moves and not just this poem but like you know almost all the poems in your book. Each one sort of locks into the previous one with something more like assuscation then I would say a narrative. There's this this image of you know your hurt and when no one apologizes your eyes roll out of your head as packets of fake sugar are mentioned. So can you tell me what is it about narrative that you mistrust or what is it you feel you can do when you let go of narrative oh I love this question thank you?
