hecklers heckeling
behind my back shankings happening
this is the lickening
the tongue fuck reckoning
THE LICKENING follows the rhythms of poetry, prose poetry, and even hip hop, through various character’s perspectives of the world. From a girl who drugs her family with LSD at dinner to a man mourning the loss of his son. From the milky gaze of a woman in the mental institution to the lustful eye of a man in love with a cam girl. This strong, accurate and playful collection of poems is for anyone looking to expand their literary horizon beyond the realms of traditional poetry.
