SINISTER QUEER AGENDA. A long poem threading together a fragmented narrative of the queer body self-deconstructing and logical propositions defining (and failing to define) the queer lyric "I." Alongside this appears "The Body under Valuation," a polyvocal musical epilogue. above/ground press, 2018, isbn: 978-1-988495-85-9
“Situating the self within Capitalism neatly ties the chapbook together: being queer in a heteronormative capitalist environment is guaranteed to alienate the queer from their body. Being born into a world driven by profit, their bodies have become unresponsive vessels to the drive to produce and reproduce for the sake of capital. In a way queerness in itself is the biggest rebellion towards capitalism and its ironically sinister agenda that’ll oppose queerness at any cost.”
