"You cannot get in the way of anyone's path to happiness, it also does no good. The problem is figuring out which part is the path and which part is the happiness.

A first reading of War of the Foxes is not a clear or full reading of War of the Foxes. Siken has a raw ebb and flow I haven't found in other poets and I am so appreciative of it here. War of the Foxes cannot be compared to Crush because they are different beasts entirely, but the questioning nature of Siken's work and the responsibility with which he writes is lovely. Looking forward to rereading and rereading and learning something new each time.
