This is a book about guinea pigs, but not just the cute critter variety. It’s also about the science experiment of the human experience. It’s about birth, death, and expiration dates. Flowers and weeds. Types of mothers and types of children. Salt without sugar. Bees without honey. Love gained, love lost, and the ever ticking of the clock.
These poems invite you to draw your metaphorical sword and journey with the herd through deserts, over mountains, and across the land of multi-level-marketing. Fight the HOA, fight tradition, fight yourself. So, fellow guinea pig, will you cuddle into clouds or storm the castle?
Praise for Guinea Pig:
“I was drawn to this book because I, too, love and have loved guinea pigs; I, too, have written odes and elegies and myriad reflections on life with these adorable fur potatoes. The pig poems in Kendra’s book are absolutely relatable, but she deftly expound on other relatable topics, too: love, loss, aging and what it means to be a woman in this world, for example. I was glad to read this heartfelt collection.”
