A NEW Review of EVIL ME by MISH (Reviewed by Christine Bassaber)

"Received your book Evil Me in the mail yesterday. Wasn’t planning necessarily on reading since was a “support Eileen” move but put on my coffee table and couldn’t resist opening to first pages—very attractive looking—Read the first poem, and loved!! Second one also!!

After that I have left it on my coffee table to pursue. I’ll continue to update you as I go thru them…I did want to tell you that I really loved the first 2 poems and the book format/appearance in the meantime."

Christine Bassaber (the author's sister) about EVIL ME by MISH

A NEW Review of EVIL ME by MISH (Reviewed by John Yamrus at Cultural Weekly)

"There was and is something very personal and real about this book. She pretty much tells you that much right up front, with that title – Evil Me – and even those two little words seem to serve double duty. Is she talking about herself? Or, is she forcing the reader to see something dark and black and hidden within their own self?"

NEW in Mineral Lit Mag - a collaborative poem by Juliet Cook and j/j hastain!

"Red neck, blue neck, let's pin the tail on
the purple. Hit the piñata sporting the face of
a new trajectory attack. Then intervene

by shifting the italics in the opposite direction;
by replacing every other m with a w
and every other man with a wolf."

"The hardwood is waiting
to hear your keys
jingle,
aching to feel
your footsteps.

If you kill yourself
like you say you will,
the funeral flowers
will turn to seed
and the floors of your apartment
crumble to shards "

in the poem "Note That I Wish I’d Given to My Upstairs Neighbor", which appears within the new Blood Pudding Press poetry chapbook, "EVIL ME" by MISH

"When will we quarantine together? - epicenter of the epidemic - mind full of rabies - shoved into this gothic monster closet - leaving a wet glistening trail - butterfly eyebrows ready to skewer - like a stab-vest on the shoulder - when the circus came to town - the National Museum of Death - The drunken angels clink glasses - One sock black the other sock gone - hung from his beard - How do you think I got a funny stump?"

          My pussy and legs are buried deep under an abandoned sand castle—

only my feet are visible—they wiggle at passers-by—

And my heart—I can’t find my heart.

   My heart got stung by a bee, only once, but it was a bad bee. 

in the poem "My Head Lives"

NEW! Juliet Cook's poem "Industrial Carousel" appears within The Rising Phoenix Review!

"Try this pill until you run out of power.
Let your body and brain get used
to this manufacturer’s version of this pill,
and then you will be switched to another
like your brain is just a light switch
like your brain is just a plug
like your brain is just a hole in the wall
hotel room with a bath tub that doesn’t work anymore."
