This was beautiful. I loved it just as much as Aphrodite Made Me Do It. It means so much that the author includes content warnings right at the start, especially since so much of her work deals with trauma and SA. This is poetry for the queer, wild, strange woman/ femme aligned who have had enough of being held down, subdued, forced to obey. The use of the art and the way the author intertwines modern day and mythology in an devotional way is so unique. This is poetry about hurting, healing, survival. Fighting back, reclaiming yourself. Finding the wild and feral parts of yourself and nurturing them. Empowerment and rage intertwined.
This collection also felt even more imbued with magic and witchy elements.
I can't wait to see what Trista Mateer releases next.
