Bearings of My Beloved traces the invisible thread between Grandmothers, Mothers, and Daughters—women bound not only by blood, but by the sacrifices, silences, desires, and lessons passed between generations.
Through poems rooted in memory, womanhood, grief, protection, and becoming, Khori Baker searches the places where one woman ends and her becoming begins. Here, love is not always gentle. Sometimes it protects. Sometimes it forewarns. Sometimes it asks a woman to give pieces of herself away. And sometimes, it becomes the very thing that teaches her how to return to herself.
These poems honor the women who carried what they could, mourn what they could not, and made paths for daughters they may never live to see.
Bearings of My Beloved is both remembrance and reclamation—a collection for every woman who has ever looked within herself and found generations staring back.
