medicine cabinet

poetry chapbook, 44 pages

from bottlecap press (2025)


Sometimes the body breaks down, and sometimes the breakdown is in your head. With all the modern medical marvels of the twenty-first century, you can watch how the system breaks your illness down! Or is it the other way around?


A collection of mangled sprawling crawling clawing madness organized into poetry, Medicine Cabinet documents an American healthcare experience. Taylor researches the origins of their medicine and learns how to use the stairs again. They visit the doctor’s office, the emergency room and the pharmacy—and the doctors want more tests, and the doctors have sent a new Rx, and the doctors haven’t said it’s okay to leave the hospital yet.
