DUETDUET (VOL 11) ROONEY & CHESSER

DUETDUET (vol 11) features 6 poems by Caitlin Rooney and 6 poems by Kevin Chesser—right side up or upside down depending on how you hold it. Rooney’s lines spiral like sticker glue on a Lisa Frank folder rediscovered in your parents’ attic; her Midwestern magic is all velvet visors, gasoline halos, and dogs that become furniture. Meanwhile, Chesser broadcasts from beneath a tarp woven of stadium lights and omens—he’s seen Mothman pitch, Santa cry, and the Orioles sweep like a biblical flood. Together they bring you soft apocalypse with a side of dry humor. Read them to learn how to make a fidget spinner out of grief, or to hear a Dallas Cowboy pray. Volume 11 of an ongoing series.
