Living with Waves

<p><em style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Living with Waves</em><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> is a collection of poems which explores the complexities of loss and how a grief journey changes shape over time. Within each poem are unique moments of mourning brought on by loss through suicide cancer and dementia. The speaker confronts a discomfort with death and questions grieving rituals in American society. A societal tendency to avoid difficult conversations surrounding death informs how people experience grief. This collection encourages readers to start these conversations within themselves and with those they are grieving alongside.</span></p><p></p>
