Ode to Our Frailty Rebel Satori Press

Between these pages is a safe haven for hopelessness, for all the thoughts & experiences that make us feel like we're too frail for this world.




Ode to our frailty is a lyrical song celebrating, through revelation, the fragilities and traumatic growths that shape us. this is a book that demands radical honesty in every line. Ode to our frailty enshrines the vulnerability of our barest states of being. Gazing into the chaotic-beauty of internal conflict, these poetic confrontations traverse the terrains of self-abuse, grief, loss, and identity, blighting empty pages with ink confessions.
