Very intense & good read. My favorite passage was The Wound but its all really fantastic writing
"—we need more executionHERS—" and "We have not invented a bolt-gun big enough to slaughter a slaughterhouse" are stand out lines.
Thank you so much!! I'm real proud of those lines.
Almost made ExecutionHERS a whole poem but didn't because of time/energy constraints. I'm hoping to later, tho.
I really love the bolt-gun line, probably one of my favorites in the whole book. I wanted to try my hand at a horror-take on Naomi Wallace's play "Slaughter City". Can't recommend her work enough. "Trestle At Popelick Creek", "One Flea Spare", etcetc are all fantastic and frightening and beautiful
I'll check those out!
