Abstract

The two poems presented here were both written with gratitude for the freedom of expression I enjoy in Canada. “How To Know I Am A Human” is from my new manuscript, A Life Between The Brackets, which addresses several themes and topics I stay close to, including the natural world, climate events such as wildfires and hurricanes, and local and global politics. “The Erosion Of Borders” is from my 2022 collection, A Matter Of Inclusion, which investigates the decisions people make to leave their homelands to begin new lives in Canada. It is my most overtly political work to date.
