"an electronic eye, a magic button, tubes worm in, your obscene habit/the dork hat, nicked by the shadow, seeping from the waist down/little parachutes, catering to creative fuck-ups "

NEW Poetry Interview of me at Little Myths!

In addition to the two new wonderful poetry chapbook reviews (see the post below this one), a recent Poetry Interview with me is now live on Little Myths; yay!

This is the first interview conducted by me and the Interviewer (Daniel M. Shapiro) by IMing with each other.

I love who Shapiro added actual links to all the poetry oriented pieces of my bio above the Interview, so click on some of those links to read some of my poetry and find out more.

Then find out what blurted out of me via texting style Interview format here:

"Devouring Delicious, Savory Treats" = Two New Reviews of my poetry chaps!

"Devouring Delicious, Savory Treats: Lisa M. Cole on Juliet Cook's poetry chapbooks Thirteen Designer Vaginas and Post-Stroke" appears within the latest offering of Gently Read Literature, here - http://issuu.com/gently_read_literature/docs/grl_mar

Below is a snippet from one of those reviews; you may read them both in their entirety by clicking the link above.

“In both collections, there is a feeling present of losing a certain amount of control, of questioning the state of things, but to write the experience down, to make art out of it, is to regain control. The vagina, the woman’s body, and the woman herself are transformed from a punch line into a poem after all.”
