The Etymology of Praying to the Porcelain Gods

Book
“The Etymology of Praying to the Porcelain Gods” refers to those moments when we are intoxicated and at our most vulnerable-hunched over a toilet, spewing out the remnants of our stomach’s contents, and desperately hoping, almost dying, really, for a higher power to save us. This book is just that: a collection of poems that yearn for art, for fragility itself, to serve as a form of salvation during our adolescent years. Cheers to girlhood, liminality, and the diaspora experience.
