She kissed me; There was only darkness in any kisses after. Robin Black is a queer, non-binary author who writes #ownvoices poetry. Or as they like to put Poetry for us. For all of the ones who were left behind in traditional poetry. From narratives of abuse and reclaiming power, to kissing girls for the first time in middle school, they explore what it is to grow up an other in a world full of others.
