"from the infusion chair // some small things flash in tight bursts..." So begins songs on car stereos, an original book of poems by Michael Mahin, and featuring illustrations by artist Skye Murie. Written in the post-chemo, post-cancer wreckage, this inaugural poetry collection from Pumpkin Boy Press explores issues of queer love and identity, the complicated nature of survivorship, as well as the tumult and "terror" of living through one's twenties.
