Juliet Cook doesn't fit inside an Easy-Bake Oven and rarely cooks.
She does write poetry.
Her poetry has appeared in a peculiar multitude of literary publications.
Cook's tiny independent press, Blood Pudding Press, sometimes publishes hand-designed poetry chapbooks and sometimes creates other art, such as abstract painting collage art hybrid creatures.
Blood Pudding Press's spooky little sister is an online blog style literary magazine called Thirteen Myna Birds.

NEW! Short Poems of Violence and Chickens by Juliet Cook and Darryl Shupe!
The latest Blood Pudding Press poetry chapbook is a strange collaboration
that fuses odd animal/human hybrids...
Juliet Cook and Darryl Shupe's poetic collaboration was unexpectedly inspired by Juliet having a hissy fit about Darryl's use of the word nasty to describe being drooled on by a sheep at a county fair, because she felt like nasty was an overused word. Instead of staying annoyed, she used his sentence to start a poem, which ended up resulting in 18 collaborative poems that fused nasty animal/human hybridization with other disturbing elements of existence.
15 of those poems are included within this newly published collection.
Juliet is a stuck pig/circus peanut hybrid.
Darryl is a swearing carousel horse.
Both of them like goats, but Darryl does not like clucking chickens.
***
Buyers of this new collection may choose between the HOT chicken cover OR the DUNK YOUR DIPPER! cover OR let the shop choose for you.
The chapbooks are hand-bound with fun-filled ribbon or yarn and come with hand-designed oddball bookmarks.
Any questions, please feel free to ask.
And aside from that, you can acquire a copy in the Blood Pudding Press shop HERE - https://www.etsy.com/listing/1335251323/new-short-poems-of-violence-and-chickens
(OR if you'd prefer to pay via Paypal, just send $10 to Julietcoo@gmail.com, with your name and address and possible cover preference).

"I cracked open the caged runway models who were not allowed
to wear anything other than dirty sheep wool.
Whose teeth and tongues had been removed to make room
for more nasty spittle. Now goats,
goats are a different kind of nasty,
bleating and coughing up gelatinous globs of goo.
Keep their pens clean or the models get the hose again."
some lines from the first poem in the collection, "Deep-fried Model Faces Sold Here"

"This body makes me increasingly uncomfortable.
The escalating scale.
The fat with a watered down cavern inside.
The loosening tissue with fish gills drying out.
The hagfish orifices turning into fossils.
I can handle my whitening hair, but
soon I won’t be able to swim very far
away from deterioration."

You try to turn it off, but then
it starts again."

sequined maggots were stitched to the top of my ears

Poet Spotlight: Juliet Cook on dolls, body, and uncomfortable poetry
"In some ways, some parts of society view and treat girls/women like dolls, with implications that our faces and bodies are more appealing than our brains. In other ways, some people find some dolls to be creepy and scary and disturbing. In other ways, most dolls stay the same size and shape for their entire existence and can only be changed by how they’re dressed or made up — unless you actually rip a doll apart and put it back together in a different way. I think I try to incorporate elements of all these aspects of dolls in my poetry."
I have an Interview up today, focused on my poetry chapbook, "DARK PURPLE INTERSECTIONS (inside my Black Doll Head Irises)" and lots of other poetry stuff too.
Thank you very much to Andrea Blythe for including me in her Poet Spotlight!
