Winner of the 2023 Drinking Gourd Chapbook Poetry Prize

This Is My Body readily and unapologetically examines issues of race and ethnicity, ancestry and community, mental illness and recovery, queer sexuality and identity, and the body and disability.

But even in the darkest moments of a troubled inner life, insight and triumph intervene and sometimes even linger. An intimate exploration of the human experience, this debut collection proves itself more than the sum of its interior encounters--however revelatory or transformative any one given experience might be. It is a timely and necessary exercise in faith.
