A Work in Protest
Koli Marie is back with her highly personal, somewhat political 4th poetry collection, A Work in Protest. Surviving the loss of her grandmother brought back the writing bug that had evaded her for so long, but this collection is a compilation of newly written poems and some never before seen older poems!

worth reading
I found this book after watching an interview with the author on YouTube. It’s not my favorite chapbook but it’s definitely worthwhile. Not Adrienne Rich or Anne Sexton, but who is?
It’s hard to describe. Solidly enjoyable meaningful, feminisx queer survivor flourish-core self-acceptance, celebration of identity evolution. I know several people I will not recommend this to because I know they’ll find it distasteful … but thankfully several of the people who matter in my life, friends and family, who I think will enjoy this, those are the ones that I’ll be recommending this book to.
Yes, I know I ended that paragraph with a preposition. It’s vernacular.

love the raw honesty
Koli writes in a way that is poetic but accessible, and I really enjoyed reading this collection. My favorite poem is Mother—a beautiful and inclusive ode to women!
