Review
“I offer this bare poem to your body,” the Sao-Paulo-based poet Tiely writes in “Erratic Writing,” one of the standout celebrations and explorations of “non-normative erotic dimensions” offered in this vital, uplifting incantatory collection of trans Black erotic poetry. The poems are bare, and the bodies are, too, stripped not just of clothing but often of specific gender identity... This inclusive generality doesn’t diminish the verses’ erotic charge, especially as Tiely emphasize an attentive, explorative intimacy and intense feelings of reprieve, connection, and delicious buildup... these words have even greater life shared, out loud, off the page, where they can guide and inspire and offer license—Transpoethicalbody, in every sense, belongs in the oral tradition.
Rousing, gorgeous poems of Black trans love.
