It’s Only Milk by Morgan Brajkovich

“Morgan Brajkovich’s poems are a salve for our deepest wounds. With each line we heal, knowing that, at our most trying moments, we are not alone.”

–Jeffrey Voccola, Associate Professor and Director of Professional Writing at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

“‘It’s Only Milk’ is a vivid portrait of everyday life and the highs and lows that come with it. Not a single shade of gloom or joy is left unpainted, and nothing that needs to be said is left unsaid.”

–Cody Oliver, Poet and author of No More Loveland: A Collection Of Poems

“It’s Only Milk offers us no safe spaces: in Brajkovich’s poems, flowers turn to decay, ‘home’ is just ‘four putrid walls closing in,’ and even crawling under the blankets leads only to ‘a bed of snakes.’ These gritty poems hum with the energy of Spoken Word and render the familiar both strange and sinister. ​”
