Quiet Stains My Teeth

The poet invites readers to consider these poems as if they were walking through different doors in her mind and witnessing the writing on the walls. The poems in this book are a sampling of several different moods. Each haiku marks a change in the mood of the poetry to come after it (brooding, silly, affectionate, angry). It encompasses years of broad observations or attention to microscopic detail in one moment. This book is the first book of poems published independently by Lynettra D. Artis.
