recommended for: irene & her posse

Toby Barlow writes
about the good things in life
and the bad.
Oh, you know:
Blood, sex, death, hunger, frenzy
But his
conceit!
His
gall!
Is to structure his story
as 308 pages
of free-verse poetry
whose style this preview crudely mimics.

But wait!
Oh gentle goodreads friend
I haven't even told you
the best part.
For Barlow's
book?
poem?
experiment?
What do you call something
that defies all genres?
Anyway, Barlow's..
product
follows the lives
of A PACK OF FREAKIN' WEREWOLVES
raping, feeding, and pillaging
in present-day Los Angeles.

Cool.

This could either be
fabulous
or terrible. I have no idea which one.

Perhaps I should
read it
while still
in LA?
