I Don't Know Do You

"New York poet Roberto Montes is still a few years away from 30, but he has already written one of the best, most original poetry books of the year. Montes’ language is almost otherworldly, and his poems are, by turns, disturbing, sexy and sometimes surprisingly funny.

You helped in the following ways. You were there. You weren’t.”"
