Bonta reviews Not Coming Back

I was delighted yesterday to discover Dave Bonta's review of Not Coming Back. Totally unexpected, and the review is such fun!

 "One interesting side-effect of presenting poems in this format so associated with a different kind of media, I find, is that any oddness in the text seems much more striking. 'Spring,' for instance, almost shouts in its white text on a dark green page, and I’m like, whoa! Spring is pissed off."

Reminds me of this song, with the chorus line of "don't think I'm coming back."

Oh, yes, I did like that review! Hurrah for Dave for being so indefatigable about reviewing...
