A collection of poetry by Courtney Marie, co-founder of the Spiderweb Salon artist collective.

the world is on fire but everything is fine. you're invited to a party. there will be dancing. a poet falls in love with you. we want this to last forever. somewhere hidden, a garden blooms. a revolution overdue. illness and isolation. the misery of hope. the comfort of madness. a forest of contradictions. you're not sure what's real anymore. a ghost has gone missing. we haunt this place now. nothing will ever be the same.
