fragmented rhymes: grotesque beauty & dreadful bliss

alchemical mythopoetics: absurdity, madness, memory, sacramentality, being and longing.

“It has been said that the poet is the great therapist. In that sense, a poet’s task is to exorcise, expel, and, in addition, repair. To write a poem is to repair a fundamental wound, a tear. Because we are all injured.”

~Alejandra Pizarnik
