Reddit, what is your favorite poem?

"Litany in Which Certain Things are Crossed Out" by Richard Siken. I find something very lovely about the way it's laid out, and some of the lines are gorgeous. Also the way it depicts relationships that are unhealthy or falling apart is accurate it achy ways to me. It's a bit of a long one, so I'll just copy over my favorite verse:

Hello darling, sorry about that. Sorry about the bony elbows, sorry we lived here, sorry about the scene at the bottom of the stairwell and how I ruined everything by saying it out loud. Especially that, but I should have known. You see, I take the parts that I remember and stitch them back together to make a creature that will do what I say or love me back. I’m not really sure why I do it, but in this version you are not feeding yourself to a bad man against a black sky prickled with small lights. I take it back. The wooden halls like caskets. These terms from the lower depths. I take them back. Here is the repeated image of the lover destroyed. Crossed out. Clumsy hands in a dark room. Crossed out. There is something underneath the floorboards. Crossed out. And here is the tabernacle reconstructed. Here is the part where everyone was happy all the time and we were all forgiven, even though we didn’t deserve it.
