“ I have been trying to write about my dogs for a long time. The pandemic was difficult and very lonely for me as a queer person living alone in a rural area, but oftentimes I found safety in my dogs' love and gentleness. There is so much that humans have to learn from our fellow animals, and I think a lot about the poems my dogs might be writing in their own ways. I wrote this while reading Mary Oliver's Dog Songs. ”
