I’m fired up to have my poem “The Book of Girls Who Burn” appear on New Verse News today.

It’s for all the girls and women who grew up hearing quiet piggy.

While we’re here, we'd love to give a shoutout to Soccer, the dog actor who played beloved Wishbone on the PBS series by the same name.

Give Wishbone the Emmy!

The wishbone must be completely dry and brittle before it will snap, which can take up to a few days.

To speed up the process, try popping it in the oven for a few minutes.

One popular Thanksgiving tradition is making a wish while breaking the fulcrum of the turkey, more commonly known as the wishbone. 🧵⬇️

THE BOOK OF QUIET GIRLS WHO BURN

...To the employer who gave me a gold necklace but told me never to wear it at work,
To the guy who date r*ped me in a warehouse loft,
To the guy who parked in the woods & shoved my head into his crotch...

Quiet, pig
