The swarm- I don't really understand her poetry, it's too deep for me, but this one was about people in the country that shoot thing. It's written in lines of four--quartets?--and had a few fragmented line brakes. The swarm is referring to a swarm of bees that get higher and higher and eventually get shot down by the gray faced men.
Resolve-this poem is all about images, cats and roses bushes and sneering winds. It had a few one word lines and funky line brakes that probably mean something. I liked it better than The swarm because it was short and simple. I didn't understand what she was resolved about, but maybe it was to live.
Years-this poem, as far as I can tell, is about how she's tired of life. She mentions that she never wanted eternity, and that God isn't high on her favorite people list.
Stillborn-I actually liked this one, it's about how poems are similar to stillborn baby's. I got the comparison, and appreciated that I didn't feel stupid reading it. It was also a sad poem, surprise, surprise, but it wasn't all weepy.
