Important and beautiful and dark and biting and tender.
I love the serendipity of the next of four library books I picked up with this one being anchored in a poem and in the acknowledgments.

a place called no homeland is a solid collection of poetry, and - as always - sublimely, tenderly written by kai cheng thom. the poems delve into trans identity, diasporic cultural ties, relation to whiteness, self-love, some so aching while others insightful and technically impressive.
Graphic: Transphobia, Racism, Child abuse, and Racial slurs
Moderate: Rape, Emotional abuse, Bullying, Sexual content, and Physical abuse
Minor: Self harm and Suicidal thoughts
