New! A poem by Juliet Cook is appearing in the Spring 2022 Issue of Scapegoat Review!

"Maybe your microfear invisibly grew inside
your own head until it had to find a way out
and then its ghosts invaded
your own microwave, which suddenly
kept repeatedly restarting itself
for 4 seconds at a time, trying to heat up baby food.
 
Baby food for 4 seconds, baby food for 4 seconds,
expired, invisible baby food for another 4 seconds.
You try to turn it off, but then
it starts again."

in Juliet Cook's poem "MENTAL METEOR SHOWER", which appears in the new Spring 2022 Issue of Scapegoat Review!

New! Three new poems by Juliet Cook are appearing in A Thin Slice of Anxiety!

"My mind can temporarily detach itself
from my own bad habits,
but my body keeps exposing



an abstract lullaby of gurgling internal
streams turning into screams."

New! Three new poems by Juliet Cook are appearing in the Terror House ("Death Will Always Exist," "Field Dressing Fantasy," and "Body Captivity")

"My mouth opens like a sludgy exhibitionist.
Flings unlikable pets onto another surface.
Attempts to position them the way I want them to be
until they start shaking uncontrollably
until they start shaking insidiously
on top of this persistent slab of snow."
