2016 Reading: Mortal Trash


It's been a while since I read a book of poetry and I'm quite fond of Kim's work so I thought I would just slide this into this year's reading so it didn't end on an even number. 121 FOR THE YEAR, WOOO!!!

I think one of my favorite poems in this book is one called "My Sword Sleep In My Hand"

"My Sword Sleep In My Hand"

There's a skunk on the golf course.
Bring me my nine iron.
I can kill the little shit
without raising a divot.
My caddy is an idiot.
My maid is illegal.
My wife's tits sag.
I covet the babysitter.
Bring me my putter.
I own this town.

I don't know why. I liked a lot of her poems in this book and I hope to find some more books by her in the future to enjoy.
