NEW! Juliet Cook is pleased to have another new poem appearing in MasticadoresUSA!

"Based on what? Based on who?
I don't believe in the same god as you.

I sometimes believe in poetry,
even if hardly anyone seems to care or understand
what I'm trying to share or why."

in Juliet Cook's poem "Traditional Assumptions", which is newly appearing in MasticadoresUsa

NEW! Juliet Cook is excited and delighted to have another new poem appearing in MasticadoresUSA - “Old Photo Booth Inside a Box Inside a Basement”!

"Are you always somewhere in between,
continually fusing into unreality?

Are you stuck in the bottom
of a moldy box? I think I mean

what is a dead sheep that keeps moving
because other creatures have infiltrated

its skin, eaten its heart, and replaced it
with their own swollen memories?"

NEW! Juliet Cook's poem "No Longer Part of the Latest Scene" is making an appearance in MasticadoresUSA!

"No longer able to generate as much attention.
No longer growing bright purple, other than
all the random bruises on my dry skin.
All the unwanted destruction adding up,
breaking down, trying to make me disappear."

in Juliet Cook's poem, "No Longer Part of the Latest Scene", which is newly appearing in MasticadoresUSA
