I read one of her poems (Balance) on a poetry website, and thought to myself, "My God, this woman is an amazing talent!" I immediately purchased this book for my Kindle only to find that the poem I read had to have been accidentally good. Her work promotes violence for the sake of violence and is overtly racist and antisemitic. Beyond that, her verse is amateur at best. Allow me to emulate:Her work isProseThat is mostlyInvectiveButIs choppedUpSo it looks likeA poemAt first glanceI can seriously only recommend this book for people who: 1) are black and literally hate anyone who is not black and 2) don't mind if someone deigns to call Giovanni's drivel "poetry."
