Our Numbered Days by Neil Hilborn
4.0

So, I'll have to admit I spend so much time with my head stuck in a book that I missed the viral sensation that was Hilborn performing 'OCD' (don't fear after reading this anthology I have now watched a fair few of his performances on YouTube!) The stand out poem for me was 'OCD' (despite having missed the hype) the way it pulls you into its happiness then breaks your heart is powerful. I also loved 'liminality', 'here and away' & 'little poems'. Overall this collection is touching, raw and honest.
