Barfodder: Poetry Written in Dark Bars and Questionable Cafes
Finalist for the 2009 Bram Stoker Award for Poetry.
A poetry collection.
Worlds created; nightmares given. The universe is a tiny grain of sand,
and by turns, it opens up into a revolving world of horrific little
poems in BARFODDER by Rain Graves.
Each poem tells a distinct story from serial killers, to love and loss, to the raising of Cthulhu in a haiku.
Each poem in this collection was inspired by and written in a dark bar or
questionable café throughout her travels... called forth by ominous
candles, succulent liquors, and velvet curtains to delight the reader
with a sensory of dark, demonic, luxurious imagery.
It slides off the tongue like river slime... or a very good port (depending on if you swallow).
