Man Enough For Myself: Because I Still Want To Be Seen is a memoir told through poetry.Donatello Dreakford presents a collection that explores memory in fragments, the way it arrives in real life: jagged, unsteady, insistent. These poems move through the families we are born into and the ones we choose for ourselves, through queer friendships, love and loss, silence and recognition.With language that is both direct and lyrical, this debut speaks to the universal ache of belonging and the quiet weight of carrying more than one should. It is a book for readers of memoir, poetry, and queer literature who are drawn to stories of identity, intimacy, and resilience.Man Enough For Myself is not only a collection of poems, it is a record of what it means to endure and a reminder that in another person’s story we may find pieces of our own.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    Edward V Bonner

Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
