Padgett and Fraser

There is something lovely about Padgett's work. When you take out all the breaks it sounds almost like regular sentences, but I think he has a really good grasp of how to force an interesting rhythm on the reader.

Fraser's work was more difficult to me. The disjointedness of it made me feel like I was slipping through the different pieces that make up her poems. I kept grasping and not quite catching anything.
