OK Cupid i "A man who ‘writes’ messages me on OkCupid saying he won’t read other authors,", 2017 single work poetry
— Appears in: Overland , Autumn no. 226 2017; (p. 31) Judges Report : Holly Isemonger’s ‘OK cupid’, the other equal first-place prizewinner, is a dark, post-digital love poem in which the words of three stanzas are recombined to tell a warped tale about the split-second decisions one makes in the world of online dating. The poem could be seen as a nocturne: the words rotate almost musically, but the recombinations also deconstruct the events within the poem. ‘OK cupid’ shows how repetition is really, in Gertrude Stein’s sense, insistence.
2016 joint winner The Overland Judith Wright Poetry Prize
