Tiger laughs when you push / She already has dirt with her donut / and knows the cage is cardboard.

They are marvelous. - Emily Pettit, author of Goat in the Snow From a mother who sends her daughter a "napkin of rotted teeth" to a parrot that squawks in "lilting Lithuanian" to Eden who "squatted menstrual blood paintings" the poems in Tiger Laughs When You Push constantly shock the reader with original imagery, startling language, keen observation, and bigness of heart.
