ANGELS & INSECTS ARE CREATURES WITH WINGS is a 27-poem exploration of the feminine body: how socialization affects our relationship with the feminine body, how religion shames women for the simple act of having bodies, and how to exist as feminine in a body you cannot claim, because you do not love. It is a liberation, a transformation, a reclamation. It seeks God in the butterfly as in the dung beetle. It looks to the sky from knees, in the dirt.

Digital download includes a scrollable page by page rendering of the print version and a booklet file formatted to print into a fold and print trimmable version perfect for sharing (no shame or blame, our goal is more books out in the world) or tucking away in a bag, pile, or pocket, until it’s just the right time.
