The poetry book it took me three years to write because I thought I was the only one who couldn't think straight. Have I written my own blurb? Yes, I have. And my hope is that the poems in this book encourage you to do the same. To remember that we don't have to wait for permission or have everything figured out.

If my first poetry book explored the complexities of parenting and patriarchy, this book staggers into the next chapter. 'Staggers' not because it's had too much to drink, but rather because it's navigating the rage, the restlessness and the longing for something more.

As well as the magic found within female friendships, the slow return to something like self-love and the comfort found in community and nature.

"Midlife got me working on my multitudes. Got me malfunctioning. And learning not to call anything my body does for me a ‘malfunction.’"

With titles like, 'I am fuck the patriarchy' and, 'Please do not apologise for the mess,' my aim for this book was to articulate the roller-coaster of peri-menopause, prompt us to think about where we find hope during dark times and remember better days are coming.
