About the book

Tea With the Tigress: Poems 2010–2020 brings together a decade of poetry by Thomas L. Vaultonburg, exploring the complicated territory of love, desire, memory, loss, and the absurdities of human existence. Moving between tenderness and dark humor, intimacy and alienation, these poems examine the strange negotiations we make with ourselves and the people who enter our lives. Relationships become landscapes of longing, misunderstanding, revelation, and occasional catastrophe. By turns playful, melancholic, irreverent, and deeply personal, Tea With the Tigress offers an unvarnished portrait of emotional life, where beauty and disappointment frequently occupy the same room. A collection for readers who appreciate contemporary poetry that is emotionally direct, psychologically curious, and unafraid of the uncomfortable truths hiding beneath ordinary experience.

Thomas L. Vaultonburg

Thomas L. Vaultonburg is a poet, novelist, and independent publisher from Rockford, Illinois. He is the founder of Zombie Logic Press and Zombie Logic Review and co-founder of Wolf Twin Books. For decades, he has worked outside the traditional publishing establishment, writing and publishing literature that doesn't always behave itself. His books include the horror novel Necromancers Don't Read Toe Tags, the poetry collections Vanished Roads, Small Songs for Weary Travelers, and Submerged Structure. His poetry has appeared in literary journals internationally, including Presence, Acorn, Kokako, and Wales Haiku Journal. His fiction explores the absurdities of institutional power, the secrets communities keep, and the peculiar ways human beings accommodate the unacceptable. His poetry moves between humor, grief, nature, and the strange little revelations of everyday life. He continues to write, publish, and promote independent literature from Rockford, where he believes interesting things are happening whether anyone is paying attention or not.
