Catullus' poems are interesting reads. There is a similarity to Sappho's writing however Catullus is more direct and straightforward. Catullus' poems have a different theme than Sappho's. Catullus' written his poems to his friends, his love. His word use is more on the vulgar side opposed to the word choice of Sappho. I much rather read poems by Catullus than poems by Sappho.
