mars2k 's review for:

Skulk by Charlotte Amelia Poe
3.5
emotional medium-paced

The first ten poems are pretty samey, but there’s some variation in form after that. I liked “woodland burial” and I liked “thursday, i don’t care about you” except the last line – I get that it’s supposed to be awkward and shrinking but idk it just felt a bit too awkward for me, or maybe not awkward enough?
I think what will stick with me isn’t entire poems so much as individual phrases, like “bring a wolf bite to a cat fight”
