Nohea

"You are not broken. You are art." In this debut collection of poems, the boundaries between the physical and the divine dissolve. The name Nohea—which translates from Hawaiian as "lovely," "handsome," or "beautiful"—represents a beauty that persists through the raw and the unpolished. It takes the reader on an alchemical journey through the heat of human desire and the gravity of ancestral power. Moving with the smoothness of a late-night R&B symphony and the weight of an ancient oracle, these twenty-one poems chart the evolution of a soul. This collection is a ritual of shadow and light. Divided into four movements—The Sacred Flesh, The Fracture, The Quickening, and The Ascended Heart.
