when you are the first sound of morning your words ocean & I am weightless
when you look at me with your whole face my shadow falls behind me
Moving through queer intimacy, memory, and displacement, the poems in this collection trace what it means to be pulled off-course—towards others, towards language, towards fleeting forms of belonging. Fragmentary and tender, Lateral Sway offers an account of how connections survive across bodies, borders, and time.
