Poet of the Month: Charles Douthat

Crying Man

Out of all of the poems that we have covered so far in class, I found that this was one that I somehow made a connection to. I personally have never witnessed someone crying and calling out to God in a bathroom before but I feel like the somberness of this poem really struck me differently than the rest. For some reason, I tend to be attracted to things that have a somber/more tranquil vibe to them versus things that are upbeat and inspirational.

I'm not really sure how to end this so I'm using this sentence as a cop-out for ending this post. The End.
