A NEW Review of the new Blood Pudding Press poetry chapbook, "i saw god cooking children / paint their bones" by john compton

"These pieces stitched together in artistic fashion by a wonderful small press look to creators who fall out of love with their subjects. A parent treating its child poorly for how they're born is like a god prone to damn all humanity without giving it a chance. Plenty of honest pictures lie within these beautiful pages. Every one of them unique.

- Tim Heerdink, author of Razed Monuments, The Human Remains, and Red Flag and Other Poems"

***

I said hello

to the death songs inside me.

I caressed the safety razor

I used to shave my legs.

I couldn’t force myself 

to carve the flesh of my wrists.

I asked my mother

to move so I could reach

the cabinet under the kitchen sink:

I’ll drink Drano.

I’ll kill myself.

No, you won’t, said Mother

and told me to set the table.

in the poem "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

Another NEW Review of my new poetry chapbook - The Rabbits With Red Eyes!

This woman writes the best reviews of my books ever! I mean I don't even think she knows how into David Lynch I am and she references Lynch in a review of my latest poetry chapbook!?!  I happen to be drinking too as I read this review, but this review is fucking great, as far as I'm concerned!

Here's the beginning:

"So......
Yeah. This book. Um....
You know the feeling when you're 3/4 thru a David Lynch movie late on a Saturday night and you've had a few drinks and you have no effing clue as to what is going on, because your reality is mixing with Lynch's reality and nothing is real but everything is a little too real and it overwhelms you and you wanna get up and get another drink but now you're too freaked out to rise from your sunken place on the couch and then you start crying and suddenly there are rabbits and violent confusion, and anxiety completely consumes you but then you are laughing and the credits roll and you sit there for another hour in your own piss and tears and just feel so thankful for this art.
Same feeling with this book."

A few more lines inside The Rabbits With Red Eyes...

"All he wants to do is destroy
in order to feel like his body is stronger.
He can't control his own body, so he'll control others.
He wants to be the boss of broken body parts."

in my poem "Pepper", within my newest poetry chapbook, "The Rabbits With Red Eyes", available from Ethel Zine & Micro Press, HERE - https://www.ethelzine.com/shop/the-rabbits-with-red-eyes-by-juliet-cook
