Wholesale not a cry for help, just a crying out, by Lily Rain

Poetry, prose, chapbook, 32 pages, from Bottlecap Features. not a cry for help, just a crying out is a collection of prose and poetry. It’s about coming to terms with the futility of it all. It’s about loving anyway. It’s the fear of turning into the flames that burned you. It’s about all the endings— the kinds that let you softly turn away, the kinds that slam the door in your face. not a cry for help, just a crying out is about going back to your childhood home and not flinching at the rubble. It’s about how our bodies exist in this world, the lack of control we have over our physical forms. It’s existentialism, nihilism, absurdism. It’s spite, pure and bitter.
