burn + bind

burn + bind traces a three-act journey through desire destruction and reclamation. In poems both searing and tender the speaker moves from first spark to consuming fire through labyrinths of violence myth and memory to the slow work of mending what remains. With imagery that tastes of ash and smoke love and blood this collection confronts the ways we are undone by others-and the ways we stitch ourselves back together. At once brutal and beautiful burn + bind is a testament to survival transformation and the heat that shapes us.
