Ah too many Ahs. O too many Os

Ah too many Ahs. O too many Os

HymenHymen by H.D.
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I do like H.D., but not this collection. The writing is derivative of Keats and the Romantics at their gushingest. The classical references and dramatic monologues of mythical figures do nothing new. And every poet should be allowed only one “ah” and one “O” in their careers. H.D. uses up a century’s worth here.
