Probably Okay is a collection of poems about modern life, overthinking, relationships, and the strange gap between how things look and how they actually feel.
It moves between the small and the significant, from self-checkout machines and unread messages to grief, love, work, and the quiet moments that sit somewhere in between.
Some of it is funny. Some of it isn't. Most of it is honest in a way that probably would've been better left unsaid, but here we are.
There are poems about:
saying the wrong thing and thinking about it for three daysbeing good at coping but not entirely sure that countsloving people properly and still getting it wrongthe kind of tired that sleep doesn't fixand the odd, unexpected moments that make everything feel briefly manageableThis is not a guide, a solution, or a neat conclusion.
It's just a collection of thoughts from someone trying to make sense of things as they happen.
Which, most of the time, means being probably okay.
