"Trudging in the snow through layers and layers of meaning, just trying to get to the other side." Couldn't have been said better! Sometimes, the translation of poetry itself needs a translator. It takes a lot to understand poetry, but this depth is what adds to its meaning, and in times of despair, to its message. Thank you for this great perspective :)

Thanks - I'm glad it spoke to you! It can definitely feel like it's just me hahah. Yes, I have always had a harder time with poetry, too, and fiction but still find it worth pursuing, but have only just been able to articulate why with this piece.
