nice words about me:
Tender as in easier to chew is just a brilliant title for this poem that just feels so visceral in its use of language and got its hooks inside me, and I couldn’t let it go
-Andrew McMillan
So many poets start big to pull you in, but Oli starts small and lets you almost fall into it, and there is something really satisfying about that. I’ve waited for that feeling to disappear but I’ve accepted that it never will. It happens every single time I hear their work.
