Buried Before Winter maps the journey of a voice tunneling upward through the clay of toxic cycles to find joy and authenticity. This poetry collection confesses vulnerabilities, casts off fears, and clings to what matters most. Both scrutinizing and gentle, this work is a hospice for harmful patterns to die gently, and simultaneously a soft nesting ground for a new narrative of hope. Themes of religious deconstruction, spiritual rediscovery in nature, family lore and breaking cycles, queer identity and complicated grief, are all delicately examined in a non-linear story that is political yet deeply personal. Like setting a bone before casting, the jarring imagery and raw emotion usher in the slow knit of healing though nature, love and simplicity. The buried voice in question hatches from a substrate of neurotic heartache and held breath, to blink awake to a triumph in the trust of ones lived experience.
