60+ illustrated poems told from under the buzz of a bar's strip lights. Whirlwind dates devoured by sewer rats. Grief that turns into vindictive triumph. Fights that leave bartenders and bystanders picking up the bloody shards. Addictions to parties and people that claw at your complexion and mental stability. Wallowing in wine and rumpled sheets, dirty flings and dead seasons. ¿Poetry features including J. Travis Grundon, Stephen J. Golds, and David Cranmer. "Jones' terse style pounds the reader like a red-wine-headache, each poem a bitesize brutality-as opposed to a lengthy pity party-making for a perfectly impactful read." ~ HLR, author of History of Present Complaint "B F Jones writes poems that are snatches of beauty and truth. Life and death. Taking everyday scenarios and embroidering them with shards of heart, soul and bone. Written in blood. B F Jones is one of the most wryly observant and honest poets writing today. You'll feel enlightened and contaminated, saved and damned, once you finish this collection." ~ Stephen J. Golds, author of Half-Empty Doorways and Other Injuries "Visceral and fierce observations are exposed in dark poetry that's perfectly concentrated in each line and word. Jones paints very easily absorbed and unsettlingly relatable emotions. Powerfully crafted words and phrasing with such power and placement. Like the spirit of blues master gifting us a solo performance." ~ John Bowie, author of Dead Birds and Sinking Ships and the Viking Series

Her other works include: Artifice, 27 stories answering the question: What really happens behind closed doors? Something Happened at 2a.m. (Anxiety Press, 2022), a collection of interconnected flash set in a small English suburb where a lot seems to happen in the dead of night. 5 Years, a David Bowie-inspired chapbook made in collaboration with Stephen J. Golds and David Cranmer. Jones is currently working on a poetry book called She that follows an aging woman through her descent into madness, and a crime novella set in 1980s Corsica. The latter she is attempting to write in French, which she hasn't done in over a decade.
