Read the first poem in my NEW Poetry Chapbook, REVOLTING (and more)!

"Sometimes we learn the hard way

 that some mice will eat their own babies

like sadistic cannibals, leaving nothing but half a body
attached to a head that will always live inside mine."

in the first poem ("From Hormone Imbalance to Death") within my NEW chapbook, "REVOLTING" (very recently published by Cul-de-sac of Blood).

I'm sharing a few more photos of this chapbook, as well as this whole poem here.

Front cover - first page of poem - second page of poem - back cover.

You can acquire the whole chapbook (in conjunction with other chapbooks or by itself) from Cul-de-sac of Blood HERE - https://www.culdesacofblood.com/books

Please support small presses and also keep in mind that poetry chapbooks could make uniquely delightful holiday gifts (or anytime gifts) for those who adore or are inspired by poetry!

(I also have some extra copies of my REVOLTING chapbook if anyone would like to purchase directly from me for the same price. Just ask me. But I also recommend buying more than one from the uniquely wonderful small press that published them all.) ***
The next time you assume
that I worship the same way as you,
all the wall hangings will violently crash,
all the splayed remnants will come back to life
in different incarnations. Thirteen mice

you killed without thinking twice
will emerge from my mouth, convulsing,
convoluted, hurling into screaming incantations,
their tiny skulls temporarily paralyzing you,
so that you can't keep on ignoring me.

"the old dead house
is finally
getting a rise
out of rain
and pain,
and sarcophagi brain-
a rummaging rodent
through fields,
climbing like corn,
climbing like
spiders on cocaine,
climbing with broken legs"

in the poem "Goodbye in August"
