Excerpts

Read a little of the book.

Eclipse and Apocalypse, p. 2

I can build empires with my words
But all I do is dig graves
And turn them into— silent waves
I wait as I watch my body
Turn into grains of salt

Eclipse and Apocalypse, p. 35

I tend to the wounds
Before I turn them into something magical
I tend to the wounds
Before I turn them into poetry

Eclipse and Apocalypse, p. 66

I’ve been meeting god
In my sweatpants
Because I’ve got prayers stuck
Between the palms of my broken hands
I’m turning them into soft soft poems
