Believing in Ghosts

“I am caressing 
a stranger’s head. Or maybe that’s
what I tell myself because I am afraid 
of my own skull, of the dead spots 
that will swallow my eyes.”

Believing in Ghosts is a poetry chapbook released from dancing girl press & studio in July 2021. The thirteen poems explore female monstrosity, grief, queerness, and what it means to be haunted.
