on the work

I make poetry that destroys the book. I make art that destroys the good woman. My works show up in bathrooms, on street corners, in anti-galleries. I leave complete works behind for strangers and never turn back.

Toilet paper poems. Wooden poetic dick sculptures. SFMOMA bathroom installations. Videopoemas. Objects with no clean category. Failure Dicks and I'm trying to understand my cunt (current projects).

DIY everything. Shows I produce myself. Publications I print myself. A daily writing practice with no audience in mind.

bad woman / divorcée

Loved, learned, fell out of love, and made the decision.

alcoholic.
bad woman / sober

Me and booze were never meant to be a long-term partnership (kind of like my ex lol).

bad woman
self-
publisher.
bad woman / publisher

The thing is...I never went to school for this. So I started with self publish because I could. Now I keep at it because it is freedom. Toilet paper, xerox, substack, a bathroom wall. If I make it, I put it out.

bad woman
heartbreaker.
bad woman / heartbreaker

I'm not the woman who will be around forever. My only lifelong love is poetry, art, solitude, sex, hamburgers and seafood.

bad woman
picky slut.
bad woman / picky slut nun

Kinky woman loves to fuck. But not with most people. Read the Slutstack to discover slutty secrets. Or just ask me, respectfully.

positions
  • —destroy the book
    The book out of the bind. I write on toilet paper, on trash, on wood or whatever surface refuses permanence.
  • —destroy the good woman
    Proud to be a bad woman and expose the secrets and lies behind the "good woman."
  • —diy publishing
    I print it, post it, leave it in bathrooms and on street corners. The work finds its reader.
  • —diy shows
    A hunting blind, a parking lot, a bathroom stall. The audience is whoever shows up.
  • —fuck the rules
    This is not rebellion for its own sake. It is my way of creating art, writing, sex, and love that is nourishing and unique.
