pickDisturbing. Evocative. Brutal. Beautiful. Gritty.
This is a great collection by spoken-word poet Nicole Blackman. It‘s been years since I last read this but it‘s still one of my favorite poetry collections.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
First book finished for #AwesomeAugust #Readathon
My first under goal reading in a long time! I've been creeping back down but I didn't expect this after last nights party palooza with ribs and fries! But I'm trying to be encouraging with my sisters new diagnosis and it helps to have each other when we're frustrated.
My #poetry collection. Nicole Blackman and Sylvia Plath are two of my favorites out of these. I haven't read the Frost, Dickinson, or Aloud yet. Hopefully I'll get to them next year.

I have never been a big poetry person. Most of the time, particularly in school, I felt like...my brain isn't wired that way. But when I was in college I went to Ladyfest (in Olympia, WA in August of 2000). I saw Nicole Blackman perform on the main stage and I was like, "Ohhhhhh. Oh. Holy shit. Poetry." I ran into her on the sidewalk the next day, and she was soooo friendly, and I was awestruck. #augustofpages #bookphotochallenge #readwomen
