Last Communion

<p>Raw and unflinching<em> Last Communion</em> dissects the relationship between intimacy and violence with surgical precision. These poems prowl through urban darkness where desire turns predatory and every touch leaves a scar. In this twisted cathedral of noir confession booths become crime scenes and altar wine mingles with blood.</p><p></p><p>Each piece maps the geography of obsession - through morgues and bedrooms sanctuaries and sacred spaces - charting territories where killer and victim blur into a single desperate choreography. This is poetry that bleeds where shadows fuck brick walls and stilettos drill holes in midnight's membrane. Here every murder is a perverse sacrament every seduction a profane ritual.</p><p></p><p>Susan Molyneaux transforms noir conventions and Catholic imagery into a deeply personal exploration of power death and desire. Like a detective's flashlight cutting through incense-thick darkness these poems illuminate the savage beauty in our darkest urges creating a collection that is both confession and crime scene both autopsy and unholy communion. In these pages even prayer becomes a weapon and every altar holds the potential for sacrifice.</p><p></p><p></p>
