EXCERPT<\/strong><\/p>\n

PRAISE<\/strong><\/p>\n

A startlingly surreal and mytho-erotic creation, The Egg Mistress<\/em> conjures unknown boundaries of eros and worlds within an egg whose origins demand the geographies of a new language:<\/p>\n

If I could speak mineral.<\/em>
\nIf I could only eat bonemeal. If the cabbage<\/em><\/p>\n

learned not to grow roots. If you were the barn<\/em>
\nand I was the peeled corn.<\/em><\/p>\n

Jessica Poli is a true original and this chapbook is an odyssey of delight.<\/p>\n
