Venus of the Swamp is a collection of original poems and collages. The collection follows a quest to find beauty in ugliness: in recovery, in childhood, in Florida swamps. It is about loving the things that are hardest to love, and finding a way to forgive yourself for being one of them. The collection explores themes of trauma, feminism, mythology, and love.
