This is a small “sexy” little black book of poems and images that will get your blood pumping. Immediate poetry for the 21st century… poems texted to a lover in the wee hours of the morning… a 160-character love note to let them know how much you are missing them at that moment… carefully constructed with words and images designed to convey, in a tiny space, how special your lover is to you.
