dc.description.abstractLike a Body in the Forest follows the speaker through what they think is the fall of their life. With feelings and emotions that change like the leaves, it is a collection of poetry about death, and also about love: two things so woven into our everyday lives we forget that they are roommates. Comprised of 45 poems, the collection moves you from dangerous behaviors and suicidal tendencies to thinking that maybe the world just wants you dead. It shadows the speaker as they remember long lost loves and the love they finally caught only to let it go. It addresses the strain depression and anxiety take on our life and choices we make that influence our own fate. Interlaced between the words is magic. The magic we wish existed in our world. The manuscript hangs in the ether, waiting to be cut down and grieved before winter comes and buries it in snow.en_US
