Coeur De Lion Reprint edition

Now that I am not addressing you
But the “you? of poetry
I am probably doing something horrible and destructive.
But this “I? is the I of poetry
And it should be able to do more than I can do.

Just a few months after the publication of her prize-winning, instant classic debut The Cow, Ariana Reines self-published this stunning book-length poem, now a cult object among readers of truly contemporary poetry. Coeur de Lion is an intensely personal, monologic meditation on longing, sex, and love between a speaker and the object of all her passions, which include thinking and writing.
