Did You See My Eyes Mum by Jazzy Green

Debut collection from Jazzy Green, UK artist and poet. Slimy and slipping between mind and matter, Did You See My Eyes Mum involves exploration of attachment, queerness, capitalism, privatisation, sex & power.

Praise for Jazzy Green's debut collection:

“Early on in Jazzy Green’s refreshing and complex collection they write “everything borderless,” which serves as an apt description for the poems in these pages. These poems are in constant motion. They shift and morph on the page. They change form and incorporate visual elements that help place us directly into the mind of a writer trying to make sense of the world around them.

Our world. But this mind is not singular. This mind is vast, ever shifting, and wonderfully queer. Did You See My Eyes Mum challenges what poetry can be and shows us what poetry is. Green is a thrilling voice who makes you feel like you are seeing something truly new.”

--Stephen S. Mills, author of Not Everything Thrown Starts a Revolution

“Jazzy Green’s poetry collection, Did You See My Eyes Mum, is not one for the faint hearted. Green presents a plethora of poems that demand that we see the poet in the fullness & splendor of who they are. Infused within Did You See My Eyes Mum are a scattering of stunning mixed media pieces that jump from the page and into the world given to us by Green; this is a world where Green tells us that they are here. Green’s poetic voice reminds us that one must turn to the body and find what it means to be alive as we travel through the spirals of life to ‘FUCKIN’ FEEEEEL / something!’” —Donnelle McGee
