In her debut poetry collection, AKW navigates the intricate journey of the human experience across four sections representing living/loving, grieving, learning, and growing. Through the poems, she illustrates how these phases intertwine, often occurring out of sequence.
AKW's poems reveal the futility of separating pain from love, hope from grief, and the modern landscape from the natural environment, as each element brings meaning to the other. Drawing on references from Greek mythology to the cyclic greening of the Sahara desert every 21,000 years, she reminds us that our struggles and triumphs are part of a shared human narrative deeply rooted in history and the natural world.
"The Sahara Desert becomes green every 21,000 years
and I decorate my teeth with gems
don't you dare tell me it's not a miracle
to exist here and now."
