Lovely to receive my copy of Ten Poets Travel to the Dark Side of the Moon ☺️ It means a lot to me to share this poem about my experience of PCOS and changes in my body and trying to see them as neutral and not negative. I hope you enjoy it ❤️

About a year ago, the editors from @SidekickBooks asked me if I'd like to write a prose poem for an upcoming anthology, Ten Poets Get to the Bottom of Some Grisly Crimes. Now that mini (and very cool) anthology is out in the world! sidekickbooks.com/booklab/bo…
