Abstract

skin & breath is a collection of poems that delve into race, heritage, sexuality, sin, redemption, submission, and strength. The reader will experience the unexpected and the redemptive outcomes of human conflict. In the hectic and hurried lives that are today’s norm, it is often arduous to be in the moment and embrace how that moment can define an individual. skin & breath asks the reader to stop, absorb a snapshot of time, and ask the questions: What are these lives we are born into? Can we change them? Do we really want to?
