Dankbriv
Dankbriv is my first full-length poetry book, collecting my best poems from the past three years which have not yet been published in a chapbook.

Force the PPD back onto radio so we can track them. Harass this ass.

It's only 54 pages, it's not dense, it's very accessible. You can read it all in 1-2 hours and you will feel a lot more prepared afterward. It's worth your time whoever you are, I promise.
