Mythology of Touch

Abstract

Mythology of Touch is a collection of poetry that explores loss and patterns of connection and disconnection. This collection shows us how the mythology of touch includes the spaces in between-both physical and emotional-and how we both survive and rely on them. The dangers and risks each speaker survives draws us in for a safe haven of our own yearning. The collection is written in three sections, one of prose poetry and the other two sections are in free verse. The different forms represent the process of narrative and understanding.
