Day 10! : Unending Blues by Charles Simic

Unending Blues has great images, but I feel as if I am left out. Most of the poems are written to or inspired by someone--and I'm not classy and didn't even try to look it up. This is an older collection (part of the gift!) and it still feels edgy.

Couples are stared at by the narrator voyeuristically and simply. Every image strikes--but I call it striking slant. It's evocative, but I'm not sure what is exactly going on. It's poetry--I don't need to understand to know it's powerful.
