Divorce Procedures for the Hairdressers

of

a Metallic and Inconstant Goddess 

Justin Isis

Pitched partway between multivalent modern Orphic hymnal and satiric devastation of the Internet age’s spiritual emptiness, Divorce Procedures for the Hairdressers of a Metallic and Inconstant Goddess, Justin Isis’s poetry debut, combines discordant rhythms, fragmented multilingual sampling and deliriously surreal imagery to create a crosscultural assault on boredom, a pagan invocation of divine progenitive forces: Lawrentian goddesses of the blood glimpsed through a Situationist lens of anarchic eroticism and vandalizing humor. A Mystery Rite in rhyme for the terminally distracted and a trenchant breviary of the lightning age to come.
