A poetic collection about grief, persistent pain, queer love, and the quiet work of returning to yourself.
Dry Bite gathers a decade of poems that together trace a life interrupted and slowly remade. Beginning in the quiet rhythms of domestic life, the collection follows the sudden loss of the poet's father, the onset of a persistent, unexplained pain condition, and the gradual rediscovery of presence and creativity, all held by the constancy of unconditional love.
A meditation on grief, anxiety, and the invisible threads that run through generations, Dry Bite traces the slow reckoning that follows when the life you expected disappears. Honest and hopeful, these poems do not promise that everything will perfectly resolve. Instead, they offer companionship to anyone who has loved deeply, lost greatly, or found themselves slowly making peace with life as it is.
