touches on difficult topics, often adult in nature. At times coy with poetic mechanics and other times startlingly blunt, it prompts the reader to consider these topics with increasing detail.

Written privately at first then gradually gaining a voice demanding to be heard, these lyric poems shock, bruise, indulge, and heal at once.
