Blood Dazzler: Part Two Smith Blog #7

The second part of blood dazzler was hard to read. In fact, I had to stop several times. I found a couple poems unbearable and actually got a little emotional. Especially, Tankas, superdome, dream lover, buried, and 34. I straight out cried while reading 34. I love how Smith’s writing is downright ugly. The beauty of her writing is not in pretty words. It is in making you feel a certain way. I am, however, curious as to her personal connection to Katrina. I am looking forward to hearing her speak this weekend.
