"I can tell you the leeches and parasites inside me / have always joined forces with confetti" (inside my CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR)...

"I can tell you the leeches and parasites inside me
have always joined forces with confetti.
My glittery brain waves rip the bandages off,
bite back, then cover the wounds with more words.

My mental kaleidoscope collides with another Martini.
I like it sweet and I like it strong. My drinking buddy
is a hot pink narwhal named Mister Melodramatosis."

the beginning of the first poem, "With a Cherry on Top of His Tusk" inside my new poetry chapbook, "CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR", newly available from Gutter Snob Books!

Another new comment about my CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR poetry chapbook!

"I’ve been a fan of Juliet Cook’s poetry for a long while, but her latest book from Gutter Snob Books is nothing short of brilliant. Full of metaphors that’ll make your head spin, and brave honesty that makes you want to dig deeper within your own heart. Some of the most poignant poetry you’ll read this year."Dan Denton's thoughts on my new poetry chapbook, CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR (Gutter Snob Books)!

A NEW review of my "CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR" poetry chapbook!

Thank you very much to James Lawson Moore for his new review of my new poetry chapbook, "CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR", newly published by Gutter Snob Books!

"Juliet Cook’s latest chapbook, “Contorted Doom Conveyor,” is a brilliant attempt at misdirection. Through deceptively simply structured verses the author uses deceptively bubblegum-induced imagery to describe the passions, the longings, and the inner demons of a war torn mind. The war is fought completely on the internal—the soul at war with itself as it seeks comfort from the madness. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Please check it out."

CONTORTED DOOM CONVEYOR is now available via Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Contorted-Doom-Conveyor-Gutter-Books/dp/B0C6W7C2HV/?fbclid=IwAR3EXO41KfukDQTv7b_jaYyLQhGUJhWAM6sKTGF516b02RbOSy9CV0w_ER4

Or if you'd like to acquire one directly from me, that's a possibility too. Just let me know. It costs $13 plus $3.95 shipping for a total of $16.95.

"But our conundrum is that it is all grotesquely pretty: the toxic therapists, (who are the real monsters,) the dolls waiting to suck out our mouths, a microwave that restarts itself every four seconds, the brains hungering for escape but trapped in skull prisons. The red ooze we are afraid to witness splatter on the wall, but we also cannot look away." (a snippet of the blurb which appears below)
