Autopsy by Donte Collins
4.75
Absolutely incredible. So much depth, so much emotion in each line. The formatting is genius and makes each poem better.
I think my favorite poems from Autopsy are Grief, Again and Five Stages of Grief.
“To mourn her is to mourn the belt & the hands that held the belt & the heart that held the hands that spilled my blood like juice across the kitchen linoleum. (…) come back. even if it means your hug is a hand around my throat, even if your kiss is delivered with a fist.” Holy shit.
