"People kept dying and I said fine, fine."

Swallow is a two-part hybrid poetry collection that explores grief, music, religion, and the tradition of elegiac writing. Faced with the unexpected death of their acquaintance and the incomprehensible grief that followed, the speaker examines the dimensions of the "right to grieve" through "digestible" lists, poetic passages, and haiku. The second part, "Swallow After," written two years after the first part, conveys the lingering grief mixed with memories through a sonnet, free verse poetry, a recipe, and collages.
