Need help identifying a punk/feminist poet
My leads are pretty scant, but here they are:
I think this poet was born in the New York City area. She released a book of collected prose a few years ago, and I want to say the phrase "I did it for you" appears on the cover, but may not be the book's title.
I remember two poems: one dealt with the apparent kidnapping of her twin sister (which has yet to be solved) and its effect on her and her parents; the other dealt with her engaged in an emotionless sex act, wondering if the dishes or the sink needs cleaning.
That's all I can remember. Does this jog anyone's memory, by any chance? Many thanks.
