Exploring the complexities of motherhood, this collection delves into the experiences of a poet-mother navigating pregnancy and the challenges of raising a neurodivergent child. It vividly portrays the raw and often grotesque realities of childbirth while questioning societal norms that impose shame on the female body. The poems reflect on the dual identity of mother and writer, emphasizing the need for self-care amidst the demands of nurturing others, ultimately seeking to harmonize these roles in a transformative journey.
