Dregs [Paperback]

Like a series of slides from a film reel, the poems of Dregs reveal the ruin, remnants or dregs left over from the wars and economic and human inequalities of our world today. Praise for The Glimmering Room: &an exquisite fever dream of drugs, anorexia and unwanted sex (in both senses of the word) populated by young women and men&who have lost all sense of where the edge is&. Dana Jennings, New York Times

A collection of poems constructed like a series of film montages or collages showing what the world looks like now
