Abstract

Testimony is a collection of poems centered on exploring the depth of relationship between divinity, masculinity, and family through a critical lens. Testimony aims to provide a lyrical witness to the social and political landscape that informs and influences personal histories, in so taking a near-confessional approach to express the foundations of faith and worldview. To further explore the relationship between creator and created, a portion of the text will be accompanied by video references that detail the process of writing and revising these poems.
