No One Wants to be the Scorpio and Head Full of War: a Scorpio Poetry Book

No One Wants to Be the Scorpio and Head Full of War
A Scorpio Poetry Book by Black Frost, with illustrations by Marie Moldovan and Joseph Mykut

Enter the sting.

This is not a safe space. This is a battlefield of obsessions, betrayals, and blood-slicked rebirths. No One Wants to Be the Scorpio and Head Full of War is a genre-defiant poetry collection that claws through the underbelly of the Scorpio psyche—where vengeance is sacred, vulnerability is weaponized, and transformation is a ritual of fire.

Penned by the elusive Black Frost, with visceral visual interventions by Marie Moldovan and Joseph Mykut, this book refuses to flinch. Each poem is a shard of mirror, reflecting trauma, rage, eroticism, and the sacred violence of becoming. Abstract art collides with confessional verse in a form that spirals from harmony to rupture, from elegy to invocation.

There are no trigger warnings here. Only war cries.

Motifs of night, death, and resurrection thread through a fragmented narrative that reads like a séance with the self. Historical ghosts, literary icons, and personal demons are summoned—not to be exorcised, but to be interrogated, seduced, and sometimes destroyed.

This is not poetry for the faint of heart. It is a Scorpio’s altar: raw, ungovernable, and lit with the fire of those who have survived themselves.

From the depths of I Ain’t Your Marionette Press, this book is a dare.
Read it if you’re ready to bleed.
