Whether embracing faith through doubt in "Let's Not Get It Together" or covering himself in grease and blood in the inspirational "It Begins" to the feverish twin exhortations of "I've Been Thinking" and "There's No Fucking Time To Fucking Live", RC Weslowski asks us to follow him into the whirlwind and have whatever mule hair we have left blown back into our faces while looking our best in "Dead Horse Mascara."

The poems in this collection invite you to ride the Tilt o Whirl backwards and find your own "P.N.E. Love Affair." Put a pair of diapers on the ass of your logic and allow it to shit itself, finding the meaning beyond the meaning by reveling in the joy and sacrilege of these words.

Komi Olafimihan is a visual artist, poet, and architectural designer best known for his ability to represent, both visually and poetically, the complexities of the world and generation he finds himself within. In recent years, Komi's art has been shaped by a cultural and artistic movement known as Afrofuturism, which explores African and African diasporic cultures in intersection with technology.

Through the lens of Afrofuturism, Komi has been able to transmit his sense of pride in the African cultures from which his perspectives emerge. He earned his Master of Architecture degree from Carleton University in 2009, where his academic research focused on the limits and uses of improvisation in architecture through a case study of the Makoko fishing community, a floating city in Lagos, Nigeria.

The principles of improvisation, assemblage, and collage are still potent sources of creativity and invention for Komi Olaf, the influence of which can be seen and felt equally in his painting, poetry, and design work.
