In this debut poetry collection, author Jeffrey Davies reckons with the function of memory: how much we choose to remember, and what we recall against our will long after it ceases to serve us. In between his demonstration of a strong sense of recollection as both a blessing and a curse, he explores the facets of modern life through a close examination of queerness, depression, anxiety, pop culture, and adulthood. As he comes to terms with the parts of himself and each other that are beyond our control, he learns that love grows as much as it floats, and that our lives belong to us alone.
