Plastic Tubed Little Bird - Wendy Allen - Bog

Wendy Allen's erotically charged pamphlet Plastic Tubed Little Bird, finds the speaker of her poems "wearing lipstick /the exact colour of my cervix" and "masturbating whilst reading Anaïs Nin". Through a tumble of poetic forms, Allen writes about orgasm, female sexual liberation and Barbara Hepworth. Her poems are tinged with vulnerability and honesty, singing of a body turned on, plugged in, electric.
