All the poems were good and some took my breath away. 

Marsh has a real skill with imagery and I loved the way she tackled various subjects in her poems. Her poetry focuses on the intersections of being Black in America, womanhood, and queerness, and I appreciated the vulnerable glimpse into her life and thoughts throughout the collection. 

Definitely recommend this collection!

Deliberate, unapologetic poetry aiming to add to the limited Black butch representation in media. 
discussions of Marsh’s experiences with homophobia, mental illness, sexual assault, familial love and guilt and denial, gaslighting, trauma and violence

Audiobook was amazing
