NEW! Short Poems of Violence and Chickens by Juliet Cook and Darryl Shupe - a strange collaboration that fuses odd animal/human hybrids

Juliet Cook and Darryl Shupe's poetic collaboration was unexpectedly inspired by Juliet having a hissy fit about Darryl's use of the word nasty to describe being drooled on by a sheep at a county fair, because she felt like nasty was an overused word. Instead of staying annoyed, she used his sentence to start a poem, which ended up resulting in 18 collaborative poems that fused nasty animal/human hybridization with other disturbing elements of existence. 15 of those poems are included within this collection.

Juliet is a stuck pig/circus peanut hybrid.

Darryl is a swearing carousel horse.

Both of them like goats, but Darryl does not like clucking chickens.

"I cracked open the caged runway models who were not allowed
to wear anything other than dirty sheep wool.
Whose teeth and tongues had been removed to make room
for more nasty spittle. Now goats,

goats are a different kind of nasty,
bleating and coughing up gelatinous globs of goo.
Keep their pens clean or the models get the hose again."
