challenging emotional medium-paced

Beautiful is the first word that comes to mind. These poems cover the range of emotions with a heavy focus on grief, Black and queer experience, and HIV. Very challenging and emotional but extremely important.

You ever read a book and think "I wish I read this sooner," that was me with this poetry collection. This was so beautiful and heartbreaking.
