Poet. Nihilist. Spokesbitch of a Degeneration.




The world’s very first 7” inch vinyl chapbook 

Like taking a shit and covering it up with perfume, Psychic Privates is a sui-southern freak show, self-obsessed and sexy—a terrible, flirtatious audiotext.


“Poet Kim Vodicka is known to push the limits of comfort. Her material is a sexually crass mix that…will easily make guys squirm.”
–Matt Sigur, The Advocate

“…like a swift kick to a bruise you didn’t know you had.”
–K. Jones, The Gambler 



The poems of Psychic Privates exacerbate excess, seduce via repulsion, and sister bodily disasters—erecting atrocities from beauties and making coprophilic love with all-too-human terrors and embarrassments. Laughing like mental patients, these love songs, lullabies, and massive heart attacks will rub your nose in the gorgeous garbage of their own language, campily ever after.


“…a sizzling gallimaufry of southern extravagance.”
–Lisa Flowers, Luna Luna Magazin

"Like its dangerous, seductive cover, Kim Vodicka's first book seems birthed from the mouth of a southern belle's rotting corpse, a trellis of roses bursting out her lips. You'll follow the flowers inside the corpse because the language of flowers is tipsy and strange. Once inside, Vodicka's bejeweled, poisonous songs will wind their intoxicating vines around your heart. Down into the glittering you will go, where a pack of pearl-girls and a flock of doves '[will] beat the shit out of [you].' Yes, this book will eat you, and the flies will come for you next."--Kate Durbin, author of E! Entertainment
