Weeds grow where they want to; not where they're told to...
Misti Rainwater-Lites writes like her ass is on fire.
She has several books for sale (poetry collections, mostly) at lulu.com. Additionally, Misti has chapbooks available through Scintillating Publications and Kendra Steiner Editions with a forthcoming chapbook from Tainted Coffee Press. Misti's poems and collages will be featured in a forthcoming anthology of women poets on Sisyphus Press entitled Sirens.
Three of Misti's poems will appear in a forthcoming crime anthology entitled The Lineup. Misti is currently working on a full-length poetry collection, her first since 2006. You will find most of Misti's publication credits, links to her books and her crazed collages at her blog. If you are interested in publishing a chapbook or full-length collection of poetry for Misti, contact her HERE...
seventy years scorpio style
(for todd moore on his 70th birthday)
seventy years of life
survived
stripped to the bone
stabbed to the spleen
thrashed into shape
spitting
clawing
exclaiming
using it all
even the gristle
no apologies
no whining
no half ass bargaining
with the devil
seventy years of life
lived in fire walking style
pen as machine gun
peppering blank walls

brilliant collection Dripping Milk then click HERE
