This is what it looks like to bury yourself and keep breathing. Eighty-seven poems move through denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance - chronicling the grief of becoming someone you didn't choose. Here Lies Dahlia sits with the feelings most of us are taught to swallow. The book refuses to pretend those feelings aren't there, and doesn't offer a way out either. It just lays them down where you can finally see them.
