Minds Gone Afoul and Mouths Gone Astray (A Book of Prose and Poetry)

This is pulp poetry. This is the poems your mother hides away from you but opens up in her spare time and cries to. This is the poetry your bastard lover wrote about you but never had the courage to send.

This is all the words I could have would have should have said. If only I'd had more nerve, if only I'd wanted to tear myself apart.
