"Minute Reflections" were based on the notion that our emotions fluctuate depending on the change in our environment, circumstances, and people we surround ourselves with.

This is part of a collection inspired by psychogeography that I’m currently working on in my Creative Writing Masters program. You can view other work by me on my Instagram account @lovebykel.

A personal and intimate poetry collection written in hopes of earning a spot in the Tortured Poets Department

These were first written during the time when the world took a turn (2020-2022). It was a time when we really relied on our devices more than ever: to know what was going on with our world, keep in touch with those we love through social media, consuming content creators’ projects from our homes, and everything felt like it was at a standstill.

This collection of poems is the product of over five years of revisiting poetry as a form of creative writing. It tackles themes of coming to terms with burnout.
