  'you need to be a warrior right now,especially in Wetherspoon's where you're slightly scaredto take a pissand for comfort you search 'Mudlarking' on your phone,as you squat in the cubicle with one footpressed hard against the doorin case someone should come inand realise what you are.'
  Jackson Phoenix Nash is an essential new poetic voice. Funny, tragic, deeply lived, his poems snap you wide awake.
  'There is an artful balance of humour and melancholy that makes these poems into a gorgeously unforgettable experience for the reader. Jackson's poetry embodies both trans joy and trans vulnerability in such a candid and heartfelt way that it leaves a beautiful mark on the mind.' Golnoosh Nour
  'This collection is essential reading: powerful, arresting, brave, heartbreaking and funny. Jackson's 'glissando' journey from 'geezerbird' through 'decomposing girlhood' and 'premature elation' to 'phoenix' is told with wry humour, deft imagery and open-hearted candour. It ought to be on every school syllabus.' Maggie Butt

  The Poetry of Suicide - Pure...

  Abraham Lincoln, Samuel Taylor...

  Life has the capacity of great moments and attainment, of lives well-lived, both fulfilling for ourselves and those around us.  But for others life is arduous, there is no spark to ignite the curiosity, to explore a stability and a growth for their lives.   
  Indeed, their lives, in their own eyes, become almost meaningless, their sense of themselves subsumed under a myriad of problems, whether real or imagined. 
  Seismic events in their lives might crush them.  The loss of a loved one for instance.  Coping is difficult, support is hard to find, and isolation abounds.  We never really know the reason, or the motivation, but one final, dreadful way out is the solution. 
  In this volume our authors explore stories that help us understand and recognise a tragic circumstance.

  Through poems about fossilised fruit seeds and the sofa where Emily Brontë died, Wetton questions how we curate the lives of those living and dead in a pamphlet about looking, processing, and memorialising. Whether considering preserved wedding-cakes, a non-existent art exhibition or a human scream, these poems speak to the impossibility of containment and question our ability to map and categorise.
  This is a pamphlet of poems about the stories that we tell ourselves, the memories that we construct, and the ways that we value and devalue people, animals and objects alike.
