Prose poetry, chapbook, 44 pages, illustrated, from Bottlecap Features.

Jump into a pop culture extravaganza with surreal prose poems spotlighting your favorite film and movie icons including, but not limited to Martin Scorsese, Patrick Swayze and Tina Fey. Each poem is a braid of scrumptious food items, pop culture icons and a central dramatic conflict. Grab a sweet or savory snack and take a romp in this Hollywood whirlwind.

Just like a good film, you will be left looking up, looking in or feeling straight haunted. Both an homage and a narrative reconstruction of our most mythical cultural figures, this chapbook leaves you gut-punched, hysterically heart broken and absolutely starving for more.
