words toward Lara Glenum’s ‘Snow’ (Action Books, 2024)

SNOW
Lara Glenum
Action Books 2024

All wrecked attitude and in-house mania, Lara Glenum’s holistically punkish Snow is a fairy tale of reverent perversion as told from the side of two recut mouths. In verse of such unified doubletalk, it hurts to hurt. It hurts to laugh. Glenum is a student of the student’s deep child, and outsources the body acoustic and orgasmic and dooms it and frees it to roam for both leisure and pleasure in an open-air escape room. So knowledgeably sad, Snow has beats so bleakly hilarious that one might need to see if the house is coming from inside the call. You won’t hear it coming.
