(#1 in Poetry 14th November 2015- 14th December 2015) (5th in What's Hot- Poetry, 20th January 2016) Cover picture- grunge (WeHeartIt) "Prepared thus to close, he raised his knife, Death came later; he was stabbed by life." When my ballpoint buckles, there is no stifling the blood that flows into verses. Nothing is too negative for a poem. Sixty-odd instances of everything negative. A book that explores and cajoles as much as it disturbs and breaks.
