Publisher's Synopsis
IN MY FEELINS is both a bracingly candid memoir-in-verse and a chronicle of societal change and controversy in the Obama years. The poems careen from race, sexuality, and family life to immigration, gender roles, and gun violence, but what is notably less itinerant is the voice. That voice-whether deployed as conveyance for weighty considerations of behavioral determinism, or for the poetic exposition of an attraction-is a constant, and is undeniably permeated by Christianity and the influence of the Black church.
