Odd to say but I do enjoy the way Saeed writes about being queer and black how those not only connect but also disconnect with the family and men around him.
Some favorites:
Boy in Stolen Evening Gown
Nocturne
Prelude to Bruise
He thinks He Can Leave Me

poetloz's review against another edition
5.0
There are snippets this book trained me to search for in the words. The moments where the narrator's sense of self connect and grow. Though a little short, this is what a collected work of poems looks like, for me.
