wheeze

<p>A wheeze is the sound air makes when it hits the constricted trachea the sound of meat meeting air. <strong><em>wheeze</em></strong> is a collection of poems about the ghostly possession of the body. It's desire as a force and not a lack. It's Pazuzu from <em>The Exorcist</em>. It's compulsive journalling. It's the reading someone else's body language as a gothic form of divination. It's the dark art of crushing when the consuming thought of that distant other person enters you through the windpipe like a second body.</p>
