Description
Trillion Amber Trumpets walks the back roads of the Ozarks, where weather, blood, and memory share the same stubborn pulse. These poems move through kitchens and graveyards, family talk and silence, desire and shame, learning what it costs to stay alive and open. Plainspoken and tender, the poems accept loss, love, and the hard mercy of living as you were meant to-despite, and because of, the land that grew you.
Trillion Amber Trumpets is #3 in the Arkansas Queer Poet Series. The mission of the Arkansas Queer Poet Series is to highlight and honor LGBTQ poets with a connection to Arkansas, the home state of Sibling Rivalry Press.
