This book is a concoction of the poet’s thoughts on a person they have an unquenchable crush on. The poet is not a very direct person and uses metaphors, riddles, and many other language tricks to embody what they intend to say. In the poem, “The Dream”, the poet talks about watching the earth flood as he sits at the brink of the cumulonimbus, but as he continues through the poem it unravels to the reader that the poet is not talking about the real flood or cumulonimbus, instead the poet uses all those meteorological terms as a way to censor their language. In many other poems like “imagine”, the poet expresses their love and admiration for their crush and the things they wish they could do together.
