Oh gosh, my heart. The love in this collection. The opening up of self. The opening up of words, stanzas. The energy, the vulnerability, the hope.

F-ing amazing poems. Heartfelt, angry, joyful, anguished, grounded and transcendent.

“friend, you are the war’s gentle consequence” (77)
Beautiful, brutal, bloody, and gritty. These prose are protests, the writing a writhing against silence and silencing. This collection is a friend, a homie who tells you how it is whether you like it or not. Always with love.
Highly recommend!
