What a strange time to release my debut full-length poetry collection, but what a spectacular year it has been for this book since.
Thank you to everyone who has made room on their shelf for “Fractures.”
You all make me possible.

My mother exalts her long-gone father.
Driving home, laments the failings of my father.
Sees her ex-husband in my excuses,
tells me: That’s just like your father.
––Carlos Andrés Gómez

“Like much of my writing, this poem wrestles with ideas about masculinity, fatherhood, and how (or if?) it is possible to break the harmful cycles into which we are born.”
