There are two women in this collection. One would willingly disappear for the people she loves. The other would rather burn her whole life down before abandoning herself again. My Heart Is Howling inhabits the space between them-that relentless tension where surrender and selfhood must learn to live in one body.
Dark, luminous, immersive, and untamed, these poems move between forests and family kitchens, peach freezer jam and summer storms, teeth and tenderness, all while carrying the wild appetite it takes to remain fully alive. Desires become embodied, bodies become seasons, and the heart grows wild enough to survive its own contradictions.
Ultimately, this collection reminds us that ferocious joy and devastating sorrow have always belonged to one another. It invites us to dive into the dizzying, electrifying depths of ourselves and to choose, again and again, this one beautiful, brutal life.
