It is available along with 3 other poetry chapbooks ("Blood Bath" by Christine Kanownik - "Friday the 13th" by Jonathan Minton - "watch for deer" by Michael Sikkema).
All 4 have interconnected cover art by Kayte Terry!
All 4 are newly available NOW!
All 4 can be purchased together in a bundle for only $28 (which includes shipping).
OR they can be purchased individually for $8 each (which includes shipping) OR in sets of 2 or 3!
They are available from CUL-DE-SAC OF BLOOD here! - https://www.culdesacofblood.com/books
Please support small presses and also keep in mind that poetry chapbooks could make uniquely delightful holiday gifts (or anytime gifts) for those who adore or are inspired by poetry!
(Cook also has some extra copies of her REVOLTING chapbook if anyone would like to purchase directly from her for the same price. Just ask. But she also recommends buying more than one from the uniquely wonderful small press that published them all.)

When I disagree, you launch
into a vanishing act
until I change my mind
or make my own thoughts disappear,
but I have my own brain waves, brimming with mice
slithering out, descending limbs, disfigured stumps
transfigured into wings
with their own inflections.
The more you try to force me to see what you see,
the darker I will become until I am
saturated in the real me,
ascending into reverse abandonment.
