this way to the cat call.
this way to the plucking.
thick paws around the birdneck
squeeze, squawk, squeeze.
this way to the meat.
this way to the beasts who do not ask
permission or forgiveness.

"These poems dark, light--make swerve the verb, shifting my noun, which is only part of Jasmine Reid's brilliance. She shows how a word (atom-like) might move in any direction, teaching us to read." - Aracelis Girmay (@aracelisxgirmay)

2018 contest judge Danez Smith on the chap: Deus Ex Nigrum is the strange muscular song I’ve been looking for. These poems ring with a lyric intelligence endued with such mighty heart such urgent and bright living. Can I be real? I cried. I shook. I danced. I needed these poems.
