This I like. It reminds me of Mervin Peake's work. Cadaverous rage n all that. And thankfully well-thought-through descriptions and scenes. It is such a pleasure to know I'm not the only one who sees a kind of beauty in tooth and claw. A cut above
Jenni's poetry exhibits great versatility with a keen eye and a steady hand. Studies of rage, icicles in allotments, barn owls, a psychical "cuckoo" nesting itself in relationship dynamics, a mountaintop meeting/meditation, and a toothsome insight into the bounty of the erotic.
Her work abounds in crackling lines and unforgettable imagery. So glad to see Jenni as featured poet!

Fabulous work, Jen, as always. Loved all.
Love Jen’s work. The fact that it is rooted in the everyday makes it powerful and resonant. Thanks for gathering these together here.
Love the vigorous language.
Love Jenni to bits and her poetry is so deeply beautiful and cracked ‘and fixed at the same time.
The images and the language are wonderful. I love the swell, from the first brief idea to a full tide of words. Great poetry!
I love these, Jen. The Icicle poem particularly is so stmospheric
