Forged in a dumpster fire of toxic Elvises, these poems are pornographic bad romances, psychedelic love dirges, and threnodies for sex, drugs, and rock’n’roll. They’ll make you laugh off the pain as much as you'll cry, cringe, and feel exposed in this 'No Boys Allowed' clubhouse of feminine rage and healing.

This book is the seminal display of misogyny’s trauma, an unflinching exposé of toxic relationships, and an exquisitely honest portrayal of a woman’s most intimate bits. Vodicka peels us to the core. This is what raw feels like.” – Jeanette Powers, author of Dandylion Riot and founder of Stubborn Mule Press “Kim Vodicka’s web of incantatory siren calls, banshee wails, and mewls with a wink of hot menace will hurtle you into a reverberating portal through which you’ll never be able, nor will you want to, return from. Splendidly mired in wit, heat, & filth, The Elvis Machine is not just a book but an entire ritual, a whole way. “ – Kate Jayroe, author of Parts HOME $(document).ready(function(){ var body = $("body"); var embed = `×`; if (!body.hasClass("mobile")) { body.append(embed); body.css("overflow", "hidden"); var closeBtn = $("#splash-video i"); closeBtn.on("click", function(){ $("#splash-video").remove(); body.css("overflow", "auto"); }); } }); PURCHASE THE ELVIS MACHINEfrom CLASH Books or from Amazon,Barnes & Noble,or Walmart Audiobook (CLASH Books) EP (Bandcamp) The Elvis...

Perfect bound blood, snot, sweat, cum, and tears, it is the over-sexed, drugged-out, rock'n'rollin' howl of a broken southern belle whose comedic musicality sears, devastates, and dements. “In our pornified country of say-what-astonishes most, Vodicka's Psychic Privates subverts our cellular shame by carving open the familiar charades into a landscape of cheeky play with a side of fury & scream.” –Megan Burns, author of BASIC PROGRAMMING “This is a vicious, playful, weighty wild tumble into the cosmic and vast potential of what Poetry CAN do if Poetry lets fucking loose.” –Lisa Marie Basile, Editor of Luna Luna Magazine “The world needs more books that misbehave. And Psychic Privates is doing just that, busting up in our neat little worlds, tracking glitter-mud on our beige carpets, rubbing its wet ass on our beige sofas, and kicking over our flower vases. This book is a hot mess. It is free.” –Steven Dunn, author of Potted Meat Psychic Privates exacerbates excess, seduces via repulsion, and sisters bodily disasters—forcing beauty from atrocity and making love with all-too-human terrors and embarrassments. Laughing like mental patients, its poems, love songs, lullabies, and massive heart attacks will rub your nose in the gorgeous garbage of their own language, campily ever after.
