About book Bicycles (2009)

I could hear a little music in my head with some of these poems - I liked that. There is definitely a jazzy rhythm here. There's a fair amount of fairly tame but fun sexual stuff in here. I like that. But there's also a lot of feminine please-love-me desperation. That's not my thing at all and gets boring fast. Also there wasn't a poem in here that really got to me. Liked a fair number of them. Found plenty of them boring. Loved loved loved! I bunny eared all the poems I loved in the book and now it looks twice as big as it did before I began.Being the hopeless romantic that i am a lot of the poems resonated with me. Because of the personal relationship I could have with the text made me love the poems so much more than just appreciating her for her ability to write. I loved her dedications, her imagery, her parallelisms. Phenomenal I'm glad i finally read it!

Do You like book Bicycles (2009)?

I write like Nikki...fragmented and cryptic at times. I get her intimate poems.
