The Body Can Tolerate is a hauntingly intimate poetry collection that explores the body as both a witness and a vessel - a place where personal pain and generational trauma echo through every cell. Navigating the liminal space between past and present, memory and dissociation, these poems trace the fractured paths of inheritance, love, loss, and the quiet, aching work of survival. With language as scalpel and salve, the collection reckons with what we carry, what we bury, and what we dare to release. It's a raw meditation on what it means to be haunted while still alive - and the radical act of healing that begins when we finally listen to the ghosts.
