Synopsis:

Keep Your Little Lights Alive strikes a balance between confessional and whimsical tones, embarking on a lyrical exploration of the Queer journey, Gender dynamics, Mental Health intricacies, and the complex tapestry of Family dynamics.

At its heart, this compilation embraces the enchantment of music, forming the core of a series of captivating poems that dance in response to each track of Kate Bush's "Hounds of Love." The album becomes the backdrop against which the poet paints an intricate mosaic of emotions and experiences.

Structured in a dual form, Keep Your Little Lights Alive first flows in a narrative current that later gives way to the speaker's ethereal sojourns to visit loved ones amidst the boundless expanse of the sea. Through this unique and intricate weaving of themes, the collection evokes a sense of tender intimacy, guiding readers through the labyrinth of human emotion with poetic grace and resonance.
