@Dharma_Books will publish @criveragarza’s Spanish translation of THE DEAD GIRLS SPEAK IN UNISON (@BloofBooks ). It’s been a total honor to have so prismatically brilliant, uniquely poetic a writer carry LAS CHICAS MUERTAS and their denunciations of femicide into Spanish 🙏
✨👏🏻Felicitamos a @criveragarza, autora de Andamos perras, andamos diablas, por su ingreso al Colegio Nacional. Próximamente publicaremos su traducción del libro de poesía de Danielle Pafunda: “Las chicas muertas hablan al unísono”, proyecto que acompaña a su libro de cuentos.

Thoroughly enjoyed Michiah Bay Gault’s fairytale-inflected mystery GOODNIGHT STRANGER. Hansel & Gretel, Rumplestiltskin, Snow White & Rose Red, The Little Mermaid, and Murder She Wrote, with the existential querying one expects from so lovely and great a tide mind as Gault’s!

I'm gonna run a length of yarn through my child's skull and attach a bud at either end so they cannot be lost.

The yew tree points up. It has a Gothic shape.
The eyes lift after it and find the moon.
The moon is my mother. She is not sweet like Mary.
Her blue garments unloose small bats and owls.
How I would like to believe in tenderness –
Plath

They laugh ‘cause they know they’re untouchable, not because what I said was wrong

If we’re tempted to read these poems in neat, bifurcated columns, the poems will soon teach us otherwise. What’s curative, what’s insult to injury. What’s wise, what’s foolish. It’s a muddle. What mordant will it take to stick your color to the cloth? All you can do is experiment

PS: no paywall, nothing between you and the piggies of the astral plane
Amazing poem, truly amazing. No paywall, no nothing between you as a reader and this encounter with some astral plane piggies. Thank you Danielle Pafunda for writing this astonishment & for letting us publish it. @gothratitude @_conjunctions
