It was a short yet profound read, I don't read poetry very often but it was certainly impactful. They are written beautifully

If I could give more stars, I would. This is one of the best thing I have ever read. It was incredibly profound, hopeful, terrible and beautiful. 

It deserves all the honors.

"You've drawn every line there could be while we wait for a circle."
This is a powerful collection of poetry. It's very thought-provoking and has excellent imagery. Plus, 100% of proceeds are going to queer Palestinians.
Note: you can get this as an ebook from a bunch of different vendors, including Kobo and Smashwords.

Yaffa weaves a powerful tapestry of words to paint the experience of a Palestinian in diaspora. Moving must-read.

I don’t believe this is a piece you can ‘rate.’ 
A very personal collection of poems.

This book is amazing and awful, Yaffa seems like an amazing person that I'd wanna know.

 (Awful bc it's just awful that the genocide is happening in the first place, and it's hard to say I enjoyed and loved the poetry when the poetry is created because thousands were murdered and continue to be, when the poetry comes from human suffering. They are lovely and haunting poems.)
