Been downsizing my office book collection, but I can't make myself get rid of #poetry books.

Nute Keep them!🙂 Some of those books would be difficult to find again if you ever wanted to re-own. 5y
MisterWhitaker @Nute yes! You understand!! 5y

The cover caught my eye, followed by the title. Of course I checked Follett to get the reviews pretty much knowing it wouldn‘t be appropriate for my middle school libraries. So I put it back. I was at the check out, talking with Jordan about this: I bought it for me.

Now to find the middle school appropriate poems inside to share with the English teachers.

I picked up The BreakBeat Poets: New American Poetry in the Age of Hip Hop while visiting Our Daily Nada Saturday night. The cover art caught my eye and the few poems I read after opening it up convinced me to take it home. #haymarketbooks #breakbeatpoets #breakbeatpoetry #bookstagram #poetry

Tamra What a terrific cover! 5y

This was excellent. Part of a reading challenge I just finished.
