delivering a body is a visceral poetry collection exploring grief after miscarriage and abortion, where womanhood, motherhood, sex, and survival converge. Moving through ritual, labor, intimacy, and the natural world, these poems trace the body's attempt to make meaning in the wake of loss and identity rupture. At its core, the collection examines acceptance, spiritual reorientation, and what forgiveness can become when it is shaped not by religious doctrine, but by lived experience. Written in resistance to silence, delivering a body gives voice to the grief so often carried privately - offering recognition, witness, and return.
