Praise for A Throat Full of Forest-Dirt:

This is the cover image for "A Throat Full of Forest-Dirt," the debut poetry collection/chapbook by Bri Stokes
Bottlecap Press, 2023

"Stokes makes use of splendid, vivid imagery that evokes a sense of wonder and universal engagement with these poems. A Throat Full of Forest-Dirt is a punchy and engaging collection of poetry that delves into a thought-provoking duality between envy and desire, loving and longing, the natural world around and the ruminations within." - A.R. Arthur

"...a fantastic exploration of the author's emotions of envy and desire twined with mythology and nature, ripe with melodic stanzas that speak to the soul. The collection must be read more than once." - Amanda C.

"A Throat Full of Forest-Dirt is an imagery-packed chapbook that beautifully intertwines religion, legend, and spiritual calling. A great poetic read!" - Samantha Terrell

"A Throat Full of Forest-Dirt grounds the gods...a lyric telling of desire’s impact on atmosphere, on the Self. The approach to myth, here, finds reverence & mundanity, both, in the gods." - Brooke Mitchell
