You bring the poetry,
I write the poem.
Drop me a word, or a few.
A story, a mood, or whatever’s in your heart.
I’ll mail you a one-of-one typewritten poem crafted by me & your inner poetry.
“…pulls the reader into its fold, holding them there comfortably.”
- Independent Book Review
Containing over 100 poems in loose chronological order, Cupid of the Mess charts how my reckonings with chaos become a practice in compassion for the paradox of being human.
These poems move through passion, heartbreak, my Mexican heritage, grief, spirituality & faith (including poems from my 8-day darkness meditation), and the emergence of my identity as a writer.
Electric, devotional, and conscious, these poems remind you to praise your hardships, for they are worth enduring.
‘It’s going to ache, as it does
when the moment flies, as it does.
So I will write, as I do.”
This first-edition print run is limited to 500 hardcover cloth-wrapped & gold-foil embossed copies.
All copies include a paper bookmark inspired by the cover art.
