Thrills, fears, enticements, and enchantments creep through the poems of Deeds: hear a tale of terror passed down through generations of whippoorwills, have a quiet word with deadly plants, meet a witch with much to teach you, or discover a lonely ghost who just wants to make you a cuppa. You might look at your former self in a mirror, petition a grim saint, resist a new range of meats popping up in the supermarkets, and, with any luck, find a way to strike a balance between your birth and your death. Not every deed is a good deed, but within these pages, we make room for them all.
