Both of these two poems are from my chapbook called Soft Foam which you can find out more about a couple entries down.

(You may also partake of the entry right below this one to hear/watch me read two of my own poems live as part of a TypewriterGirls Gone Furry event a few months back).

Friday the 13th/Thirteen Myna Birds (+ another twist)

Friday the 13th/Thirteen Myna Birds update, writhing with lusty little suckers all over me!

For Friday the 13th, Thirteen Myna Birds has taken a lusty fling featuring a hideously yummy treat of darkly delicious and strangely scary female-centrism starring Mary Biddinger, Kathy Burkett, C. Delia Mulrooney, & Debrenee Adkisson.

Enjoy this euphoric plethora of womanly horror including slithering charm bracelets, an avalanche of nonpareils, a rainbow of glistening organ exposed, egg goo, a thirsty bloom, a gummy baby brain, always bleeding…

Poetic Poems & Hot Reviews

These two fun photos were taken of me by the lovely poet Becca Claver during my reading at the recent Slash Pine Press poetry festival. I've not yet downloaded or uploaded my own photos, so just might post a few more soon.

As well as glancing at these darkly sweet little photos, you just might also want to read three very recent book reviews of three of my poetry collections. Scroll on down to my previous entry here to check out a review within the latest issue of Arsenic Lobster online literary magazine of my Slash Pine Press published print chapbook called FONDANT PIG ANGST.

Then look/lick/click below to read two other new reviews within the latest online issue of Galatea Resurrects--first a review of another print chapbook called MONDO CRAMPO; then a review of an online chapbook called Tongue Like a Stinger:

If any of these peeps give you the feeling a strange and creative collection of mine might be something you'd like to read yourself, you may purchase FONDANT PIG ANGST from Slash Pine Press or via my very own etsy shop at http://www.bloodpuddingpress.etsy.com/ AND/OR you may read the other two online. MONDO CRAMPO was published in fun and sexy print as part of the Dusie Kollektiv, has since sold out, but may now be read online. Tongue Like a Stinger has always been online. Enjoy!
