Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes | Nicky Beer

"With an energetic eye, Nicky Beer thumbs through our collective history books--and her personal one, too--in an effort to chart the line between playful forms of farce and those that are far more insidious"--

Mehso-so

Formally and thematically interesting and accomplished poems, but they didn't move me emotionally which is pretty much all I want from poetry.
I did really like the imagery in "Small Claims Court":
"I took the twenty-seven bones from my left hand / and made a xylophone on which to play you love songs. I dragged a wheelbarrow / of sugar backwards over the parking lot / so the ants could spell out your name"
