Sticks, Stones Poetry Book

$16.95

“Sticks, Stones” is a full length poetry book by interdisciplinary artist April Rosenberg (formerly known as Gemica aka Gem).

Stitched together from journals, trance writing, and collaged texts these poems deliver a psychological entanglement between the inner world of the poet and the exterior pressures and expansions of ecological change and loss, empathy, and desire.

80 p. Paperback.

I’ve been a frozen and sniffling rabbit,
but somehow, I know, I am too wild to hold,
so I’ve barely beaten you
panting with nicks in my back.
Do you want to pet me?
I want to know the shape of my bony hind.
How light and airy is the feel of my fur,
so much so that it escapes you?

---Excerpt from "Wolf Maiden"
