Press Release

In short poems and photographs, Rp Verlaine and New York Model Natalie Lane, tell a doomed love story that begins in a bar and is navigated in bedrooms and city streets. Rp Verlaine uses lean economical lines to tell the story that have both edge and humour: Throwing out/ all the porn I can't hide/ before she visits. The two lovers speak in terse sentences , sometimes playful often aloof. Intimate thoughts take an almost interior monologue type of perspective: Alcohol/ our answer to everything/ until it's not. Yet, these short terse lines are often amusing as they are self deprecating-: As she pours hot wax/ I'm convinced I will date/ someone normal next. In the end, the lovers find the journey not without its pleasures but difficult to sustain: Another argument/ ends in her screaming/ until a taxi arrives. Rp Verlaine's Lies from the autobiography vol 2 Natalie is a poetry book well worth your time.
