  • PRISONS, from the river Beautiful
    PRISONS, from the river Beautiful"why must I be alone / left / to my own tormentor / tentatively / blinking at the light / afraid" - from Prisons, by Jason Christopher Hackwith Featuring original poetry, typography, and illustration; PRISONS wrestles with the problem of lifelong chronic pain. I've been been suffering from chronic migraines since the age of five. In this staggering, intensely vulnerable poem, I address one of the worst migraines of my life as if it were my jailer.
