Book cover. Hollow Girls by Jessica Drake-Thomas. Looking up at the entrance of a dilapidated orange shed and into the black eyes of a green and pink face with straggly black hair.

Spotted on a spontaneous cemetery stroll. This is a headstone shaped like a tree stump, to indicate a life cut short. They were made for Woodsmen of America and could be bought in the Sears catalog.

Got this gothic poetry collection BAD OMENS by @badwitchery.bsky.social from @querenciapress.bsky.social at #AWP25. Devoured it whole. 🔥 Loved it. 🖤 Love the multiple different mythology references explained in the index as well! 🐉 “Reading in the Bath” as a retelling of a creation story is ❤️‍🔥

A poetry collection book titled BAD OMENS. On the cover: is a closeup of a torso adorned in a black, intricate corset, and two white hands with black nail polish and silvery rings delicately lace a chain. Dangling on the end of the chain is a gothic cross. Book by Jessica Drake-Thomas.

Snapshot of a poem/page from the book titled “Reading in the Bath.” (I don’t know if I’m allowed to ‘copy and paste’ the whole text here).

I miss being able to get lost in a novel. Lately my focus level is the span of a few poems at a time. This is good too.
