At once confessional, playful, and sonically meticulous, Byrne's poems seek conversation with a voice in the mind that won't quiet. Cruel father figures dissolve into leather-clad muscle daddies on popper-scented dancefloors; the pain of the past sows the seeds of a joyful exploration of queer desire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJake Byrne\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eCelebrate Pride with Lockheed Martin\u003c\/i\u003e (Wolsak \u0026amp; Wynn, 2023) and \u003ci\u003eDADDY\u003c\/i\u003e (Brick Books, 2024).
