Took off .25 as some of the stylistic formatting choices took away from the actual ideas for me. Overall, a decent short poetry collection as some were thought-provoking/heart-moving and some not.

"if I was not trans
would Palestine be free?
no, then how fucking
dare you bring it up
instead of saying
Free Palestine
!"

Beautiful, gut-wrenching, full of rage and heartache. Short book of poetry, yet deeeeply impactful.

A deeply personal and devastating poetry collection. I don't particularly like this poetry form, but the text itself is quite effective. The grief, anger, longing, queerness, it paints a very personal, raw, picture of the on-going Palestinian genocide.
