A dressmaker takes her dummy to the beach. An abandoned wife battles her fate through home decor. Someone follows the cow over the moon.
Often whimsical, sometimes disturbing--occasionally both at once--these poems revel in language and image and myth. Whether pausing over the moment of a goldfish's passing, speculating on the contents of a goddess's wallet, testing the sharp edges of memory or exploring the significance of skin, the poems in this unique collection find the odd in the ordinary and the luminous in the lost.
Watch out. The sting is in the tail.
