Publisher's Synopsis
If you have ever been bitten by a snake, you know that you must first, suck the poison out before you can heal. The same applies with emotion pain. Shannon Mastromonico's first volume of poetry is literary enactment of this. First you have to suck out the poison is a chapbook of poems written to purge the pain of namely, narcissistic abuse and family estrangement. Combined with sigils created by the author, this books is really a magickal guide to release that which no longer serves.
