Poetry, chapbook, 36 pages, from Bottlecap Features. The warrior goddess sets sail from a Black Sea beach in search of asylum; her boat floats into and away from war. She learns to navigate the currents of new rivers where truth and tales of half men, half fish converge. On her voyage, she meets monsters, angels, and poets—often manifesting as one. New technology assists her and betrays her. She subsists on coffee, cigarettes, and chocolate. She gave up everything she knew for poetry and expects the same from everyone she loves. Little Bit Weird is a confession “to the woman I could never love enough.” Little Bit Weird is also a prudent examination of the multi-lingual relationship test, big age gaps, professional poetry, modern warfare, and what it means to be rather attractive and a little bit weird. She taught me what true love is, which is why I could never lover her enough. Aodhán Ridenour is a writer from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
