Visceral, raw, and deeply personal. Greathouse's poetry is full of striking and arresting imagery. The poems in this collection trace over the themes of violence and the body. Particularly a disabled body, and a trans body. This collection is a defiant scream into the darkness and I'm glad I read it.
