"your small pink bumhole"
No, I did not misread the title of a poem. This blog is addressing both of the poems, "February" and "The Joy of Cooking." Both of these poems were extremely odd and hard to comprehend the meaning. "The Joy of Cooking" is literally a description of how the speaker is preparing to eat parts of her siblings bodies. I don't think the speaker is actually a cannibal. She might be criticizing her sister by saying that she talks to much. She could also be saying that her brother is mean and cold-hearted. The quote at the top is a line in "February." I am interested to see what we have to say in group discussions about the diction in this poem. The speaker talks about his cat for most of the poem. The speaker also makes it clear by the end of the poem that he or she hates February, and wants the spring to come. "Get rid of death. Celebrate increase. Make it spring."
