I am pleased that Margaret Bashaar at Hyacinth Girl Press has put out my little chap, Book Four. These poems are the bits that survived after I slashed-and-burned a full-sized manuscript; some of them are pretty old (and may be recognizable from other iterations) and some are a little bit newer. My friend (poetry friend and cheese friend) Tricia Taaca described the manuscript as "scary." I think I like that. The poems are a little interpersonal and a lot environmental with a bit of dystopic future. Who can guess what the title refers to (EASY EASY EASY really)?My talented sister the artist Minna Pollari drew the broken-beaked crow on the cover. I love where this cover went - the book itself is so Deadly Serious and this cover is a little bit goth and it balances out.
I am stealing Margaret's picture, for now. I hope you get the book and if you get it, I hope you like it, and if you like it, I hope you tell me.
