“it’s where most of us find ourselves
after a relationship
sharing space with those silver skins
not fitting any better than the aluminum did
her and her meal prep
her and her insistence others should hide
what she plans to devour”

More of the Fall issue awesomeyamazingyness over at Voice Mail Poems. Hearing this poem by Juniper Danger is chef's kiss and visceral.
“My thoughts have value even if no one reflects on them. / These mountains scrape the sky even after the sun dips behind them, / the gardens keep growing in darkness even after the dykes who dressed up for the art have / wandered out.”

Ever read someone and think to yourself, "Welp, self. There it is. Goals. THIS is who I want to be when (if) I grow up."
For me, Kathe Koja was that writer.
SKIN was the book.
What about you???
I want to know!

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.
