I’ve found out that Susan Comninos is a very intelligent poet. Her writings are very detailed and often include many forms of punctuation in her poems. “Who plans to hang mezuzahs by the bed, dangle instruments of tenor, or better: rim the door with artifact. That’s all; no more to confess.”

These punctuation marks create a deep vibe that is expressed. Also, she often uses personification, “All those amendments that might be made: soaking our structures with spit.” http://m.triquarterly.org/poetry/deconstruction-workers. I think that personification gives a realistic and a more lifelike feel. It describes and explains how and what the objects are doing. Comninos also forms questions in her poetry, “the squid in its seaboiled soul. for this i grow and swim?” http://hospitaldrive.med.virginia.edu/hospital-drive/issue-6-summer-2011/beached-or-dementia/. I think that forming a question in poetry is a very effective and quite unique way to express the authors opinion. Comninos uses this question to show and almost predict the future. Her style of writing is very interesting, and sometimes almost difficult to comprehend. With so many breaks in her poetry, it makes it very hard to follow her intent, while also trying to keep your place. I really do enjoy how descriptive and detailed her writing is. “Linguists
of the shrub variety make waxy a mate to verdant. Green’s the grace most of us would like.” http://m.triquarterly.org/poetry/deconstruction-workers. Her descriptions are so powerful, deep, and needed that without her style, her poetry would be just another worded, lined, and incomprehensible poem. Comininos style is purely unique.
