New eyes will open inside the branches"

NEW in Black Poppy Review - Cheerleader Cop

"Who tries to lock someone else inside her own tiny space
of rights and wrongs and toned down emotions
and tell someone else what their face should look like
while being forced to listen to a popular song
that I told her was not my own style at all?"

Delighted to have a new poem,"Cheerleader Cop" appearing at Black Poppy Review today!

I read this poem for the first time at a poetry reading this past weekend and now you can read it HERE - https://blackpoppyreview.blogspot.com/2017/11/cheerleader-cop-by-juliet-cook.html
