Metaphysical Balm is a collection of poetry that utilises the lyrical subject, "Owl", who is transmuted and transfigured through various guises, rituals, visions, histories, myths and physical and spiritual bodies, becoming a symbol for wisdom, inquisitiveness, religious longing, introspection, transfiguration and femininity. The collection is a journey of spiritual fulfillment and physical healing from birth to adulthood, from death to the spiritual unknown.
