A Living Situation Kindle Edition

5.0 out of 5 stars 2 ratings

Our fathers must have been more proper about it,

engaged our mothers with more chivalry

than to just shout at them over the din of a thousand others

vying to be loudest in their 5 weeks of sexual maturity.

Our mothers must have had more tact,

than to buzz through choruses of suitors

convinced to bed by the loudest and brashest

of our fathers, puffed-up drunk on summer air.

No,

no brood before us has felt this.

We are the first of our species to discover pure passion

in the creases of each other’s exoskeletons.

Each poem in this collection is a room in the author’s childhood home. Come inside and explore growing pains and the pains of growing up. These are poems about us and the lives we’re told to aspire to from such a young age.

A Living Situation is a great collection of poetry for young people going through a tough breakup for the first time who need to learn self love. It’s a good follow-up to poetry like Milk and Honey, Mary Oliver poetry, Warsan Shire poetry, Atticus Poetry, and other poetry books for teens and poems for the very young. Growing up often involves a lot of pain, and the author hopes to provide a new peer among the amazing poem books for mental health we’ve been graced by these past years.

A book of inspiring poetry, this poetry journal is one of the poetry books of the year that you won’t want to put down. A Living Situation deals primarily with love and growing up, with a fair amount of pillow talk poetry thrown in. If you are looking for love poems, self love poems, love poems from god, or love poems for married people, look no further, this is a love poems book!

A Living Situation also stands among other fantastic poetry books for women. It’s definitely full of sad girl poems, but stands tall among poetry books for adults. If you like to read about the poetry of space, serenity poems, or light filters in poems, then this collection will strike your fancy.

Though it’s Paul Logan’s first published collection, it’s far from the worst poetry book ever. A Living Situation is at home with the classics like Rumi poetry or Gordon McCulloch 101 poems, Emily Dickinson’s complete poems, The Heart of American Poetry, Sylvia Plath’s collected poems, or Robert Frost’s collected poems.
