Poetry should make you feel, and that is exactly what the powerful and plain-spoken poems in Mathias Nelson's DIP MY PACIFIER IN WHISKEY do. They make you feel deeply, sometimes like you have been kicked in the crotch, but feel nonetheless. This is the first poetry book in a long time that you can embrace one moment and throw across the room the next-the one thing, however, I guarantee you won't do is put it down.
