Writings
Poetry:
-Modern Madonna: Wealth and capital are held with the same reverence as religion; if only it provided the same enlightenment.
​
-The Bohemian's Winter Hymn: How does one move forward in a cold, indifferent world? With patience and hope.
Personal Essays:
-Self-Determination vs Cultural Identity: Gloria Anzaldúa's novel, Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza, echoes the same fears and angst I have felt existing as a queer person.
​
-Perverts: A Fan Theory: A researched essay about how Hayden Anhedonia's EP, Perverts, works as an Epilogue to the Ethel Cain narrative of Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You, and Preacher's Daughter. The piece analyzes the EP track by track, breaking down the song and its relationship to the Ethel Cain character.
Journalistic Articles:
-Trans People and Sports: As trans athletes become increasingly more common, state lawmakers try to take away the existing freedoms allotted to trans people.
