Let me start by saying this: if you've ever wanted to read a love poem about Trump and Pelosi or ponder the existential dread of a Whole Foods trip, this is your holy grail. 'Poet Without a Cause' is like if your weirdest Twitter mutual published a chapbook—and it’s glorious.

The dedication alone (shoutout to God, Satan, AND the dinosaur-killing meteorite) sets the tone for the absurdity inside. Thornton’s poems are unapologetically chaotic, blending dark humor with millennial angst in ways that made me snort-laugh on public transit. Personal favorite? 'Should Have Swiped Left'—a devastatingly relatable ode to dating app regrets.

While some might dismiss this as 'lowbrow,' there’s surprising cleverness in the wordplay. It’s the perfect gift for that friend who quotes 'American Psycho' at brunch or posts cryptic Instagram stories about capitalism. Just don’t give it to your conservative aunt unless you want Thanksgiving drama.

Downside? A few poems feel like inside jokes that don’t quite land. But when it hits (like 'Impeach Me, Baby'), it HITS. Keep this on your shelf next to your 'Satanic Bible' and Trader Joe’s receipt collection.
