The Many Deaths of a Situationship - Jarred Corona

If there’s one thing that defines the Gen Z dating experience, it’s the word "situationship." Other generations have dealt with the same type of pairings, but we’re the ones who gave it that delightfully painful name -- a word that feels so dismissive, taking on the label is like banging your head on the wall.

How often do these loves repeat? How many times will you let a man say he loves you and wants to make you his one day, only to turn around the next and call you crazy for thinking you two ever had a chance?

These three poetry collections (butterfly snuff, A Museum of Art and Eggs, and A Cascade of Platitudes) trace the many deaths of a silly boy who simply can’t seem to learn.
