Where I Dry the Flowers
Where I Dry the Flowers | Ollie Schminkey
1 post | 1 read
If Ollie Schminkey's Dead Dad Jokes asks the question, "What was it like to watch my father die?", Where I Dry the Flowers asks "How did watching someone die teach me how to live?" This unrestrained and raw sophomore collection explores themes of grief, healing, and forgiveness while refusing to sacrifice the hard truths that come with addiction, care taking, and the death of a loved one. Ollie opens their heart to readers and tells them that these emotions are okay, no matter how conflicting and confusing they may be.

Visceral. Heartbreaking. Real. Ollie is one of my favorite poets, and their work never ceases to amaze. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
