Queer Heartache: Poems by Kit Yan

Proof that queer poets simply do it better.
Picked this collection up from my school randomly last week & it ended up potentially being one of my favorite poetry books.
Yan’s poems share experiences that you will never find in a collection written by a non queer author.

“and Edwin,
if you want to try dancing with a boy
but right now it’s not safe
or it’s just a scene in your imagination,
then close your eyes,
give him a spin. Press your chest against him
and breathe.
Because that’s ok too.”
