Dig deep, plug in, and cozy up with mycelium. Feel your hyphae extending out, rooting deep underground - trust the process. This collection is a gift to you - insights into teaching from a time when the author wasn't even aware of mycelial presence. The mycelium are here to teach you, if and when you're ready and willing to listen.

Contained within these pages are queerly potent spells, both of the fleshy body and earthly cosmos, written during a time in the author's life that led up to a life-altering diagnosis.

These poems, most of which were adapted from social media posts, are meant to be the beginnings of a conversation. They are written in chronological order, over the span of 7 years and several lifetimes, beginning from early 2014 to late 2021.

Some poems still resemble the original social media post, while others underwent complete and total metamorphosis, a decomposition and resurrection of sorts. May they serve as hyphae extending out, delivering vital nutrients to you - drink up.

End to begin, writes Sur Ren Dirt in their fantastic first collection, becoming mycelial, and it is this directive that encapsulates the loving clarity of these poems and the hard-won wisdom of this poet. Here there is capacity to hold it all without diminishing the light, the dark, or anything in between. As they say in the shadow of something. Is it not the other side of light? These poems are a generous companion for all of us seeking to tend to our wounds and celebrate our own becoming. Read this book and accompany a fellow traveler finding their (and our) light in dirt.
