This collection spans experiences of loss and longing, of desire and admiration, of rage and regret, of politics, pleasure, and play, and of places where my spirit has found homes. These pieces are my attempts to capture the visceral, palpable experience of a moment, with a deep understanding that this is not truly possible, and yet, I find much joy in trying. Everything is fleeting, and my ways of seeing and being may all be turned on their head tomorrow. May you feel something of yourself in these pages; may you make space to create freely on this adventure.
