Poetry, chapbook, 36 pages, from Bottlecap Features.
Mind The Gash celebrates resilience by slamming the abstract into the concrete. The tension that draws tight the fine line between internal struggle and external surety is visible in every line of this collection.
Jennifer Benningfield presents an intimate gathering of poems inspired by the gradual decline of her mother’s health. In them, readers will see the value of confrontation and the necessity of celebration. There is dark humor, there is absurd drama, and above all there is momentum—the momentum that makes us feel alive.
Jennifer Benningfield is a lifelong Marylander who has been under the (mostly) benevolent spell of words since receiving Green Eggs and Ham as a birthday present. Her writing can be found online at trapperjennmd.blogspot.com.
