Beneath My Teeth is not a gentle collection. These are commands disguised as poems, each one a blade drawn slow across the skin, each one a ritual of power, surrender, and ruin. Told in sharp, intimate scenes, this book drags the listener into a world where control is taken, obedience is worship, and desire is edged with something feral. Every piece builds on the last until you are left trembling at the altar of ache, surrounded by bruises, bite marks, and the kind of devotion that burns through bone. This is for the listener who wants to be overwhelmed.

Beginner's Guide to a Head-on Collision offers the deeply moving poetic memoir of Sebastian Matthews's life in the years after the car accident that devastated him and his wife and son. The poems, which often feel like electric improvised prayer-songs, intimately evoke the terrors and wonders of catastrophic physical injury and of life re-booted. They are disturbing, eerie poems that embody the paradoxes of being The Dead Man at the crossing.
