Abstract
This is a full-length poetry manuscript focused on the speaker's marriage. The lyrical poems are in a sequence to create a narrative. While never stated directly, these poems document the speaker's wife's struggles with rheumatoid arthritis, anxiety, and infertility. In addition, they explore the emotions of a marriage on the brink of divorce. Other poems in the collection touch on family, including poems about the speaker's mother's battle with cancer.
