This is a collection of queer poetry, about the author's experiences being queer in a variety of ways,
the way those modes of being interact with each other, and the feelings that come out of them.
Many of the poems presented here are about specific people in the author's life, and about how the
ways she knows herself and has learned more about herself after coming out has changed the ways
she experiences those people and her relationships with them.
Content Warning: A few of the poems in here are written with mature (18+) content, each of which
are marked with a [18+] note in the Contents section in the front of the book. In addition, many of
the poems deal with queerphobia, intolerance, trauma, and other subjects that may be difficult for
some readers, so please be careful when reading this book, and if reading out loud, please be mindful
of your audience.
