More of Juliet Cook's CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR!

"It's your fault for pulling an ex-friends hair out
of the bathtub drain and placing the hair on a condescending letter
as if you were better than them because you didn't shove your own hair
down that drain. Instead you obsessively hacked your own hair off
and stuck it inside a tiny garbage can with the bathroom door locked.

You repeatedly locked doors and sat on counters near the sink
against the mirror, divided your face into numbered sections
and secretly conducted your own compulsive rituals against yourself.
You somehow let yourself believe your own anxiety
and obsessive streaks made more sense than someone else's depression."

in the poem "THROWING IT AWAY DOESN'T MEAN IT DIDN'T HAPPEN" in Juliet Cook's new poetry chapbook, CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR, published by Gutter Snob Books in July 2023.
