Stuffed: Love Poems for Assholes

By Maegen McAuliffe O'Leary

Stuffed: Love Poems for Assholes is the latest provocative collection of poetry from Pacific Northwest poet Maegen McAuliffe O'Leary. This deliciously paced seduction of language will leave readers screaming with delight, pushing them to the edge of combustion before dropping them back into the stark reality of contemporary romantic domestication. From the feral, fevered days of early infatuation to the weighty bonds of matrimonial life, McAuliffe O'Leary gleefully torches any and all traditional narratives on sappy romantic poetry, declaring "...this / my darling, is the mess / love makes, this / my dear, is poetry."

Poetry for real life, in real life.
