Water, Water: Poems by Billy Collins

medium-paced

3.5

I'm reading poetry now when I never used to, so I still question if I'm reading it "correctly". I have been liking listening to the poet read their poems, so audiobooks are wonderful to me. I have this audiobook on hold and haven't heard it yet, so I don't know if that will change my view of these poems.

Unfortunately, the current politics make me a lot less interested in the views of older white males, and Billy Collins does fall into that category. A few of the poems just had me cranky with the narrator's limited viewpoint.
