DREW KALBACH - NEW POEMS

Check out the latest issue of THE NIMBLE FEW, which includes poems from DREW KALBACH.

BEGINNING OBSESSION
BEFORE THEY DECIDED
LOOK TWICE THEN LISTEN
HOW TO REMOVE A PAIR OF PANTS WITHOUT CAUSING JEALOUSY

If you like what you read, please order a copy of Drew's chapbook, THE ZEN OF CHAINSAWS AND ENORMOUS CLIPPERS. I know you got 4 dollars. Help the kid out.

Here's what MATT BELL said about it:

"Drew Kalbach's poems are full of the best kind of danger, subverting our expectations of everyday situations until something else happens, some other unexpected, transformative experience. From their incantatory beginnings to their incongruous endings, these poems are capable of a deep magic where each line is a connection between unlikely dots, each poem revealing truths as terrible as they are beautiful, as revelatory as they are necessary."

Here's what Ernest Hemingway said about it:
