Abstract

In this poetry chapbook, I explore themes of grief, wellness, interdependence, care-giving, and self-harm. The book is dedicated to my father, as many of the poems deal with my active grief of his living with Parkinson's Disease. I also explore selfhood and all the selves contained within one being. Diving into the murkiness of life and emotion, I seek the deep.
