A Red Witch, Every Which Way - 2016 full-length POETRY BOOK collaboration by Juliet Cook and j/j hastain - 100+ pages - HystericalBooks

Dear Readers:

We are
a combustible
pedigree of bones, bravados
changing
directions we head
through lead
the way please
for us
a chorus of abominable snowman
dolls and stuffed chickens
women or abdominal blood baths.

We are
surging out visceral specters
of tainted debris art.
One eye is filled with magma;
the other eye is an empty hole,
ready to be filled with
your eyes.

~j/j hastain & Juliet Cook
