The only thing better than reading Laura Warman's poetry is watching Laura Warman read her poetry (http://youtu.be/DNHxRXSjyk4). With a performance style that's droll and irreverent, she offers us a pastiche of millennial wanderings (sex, work, the mall), thoughts (sex, work, B-list celebrities), and actions (sex, work, watching bad TV) that range from disquieting to wryly humorous. It's scathing, funny, and miserable all at the same time.

Find her on Facebook and follow her escapades in conceptual writing (Chatroulette "cloud" conversations, anyone?), watch her YouTube videos, and yes, buy the book. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? I'm not sure. Maybe $12? If you're very nice and offer something creatively compelling in return, she might knock a few bucks off for you (or not).

"Money is just a drum the beat is yes
the currency is taste I hate my
narrative voice the incense is
not drifting it's running
No more poems about colors
No more about the glowing
ivory from that building on the hill
I just realized what my lover
smells like - hair Can we create
a thing with meaning Yes-
Money is the Closest Thing
to poetry."

Yes e-mail Alex yes the sound
of walnut against wood yes
you and what army no
there is no symmetry in nature
This is fun irreverent self-deprecating young-young poetry. Not bad. At least it has a real voice behind it.
