Who Are You If Not Performing?

Who Are You If Not Performing? is a fearless exploration of life, love, loss, and the art of being unapologetically human. Over the course of twenty-five years, these poems capture restless nights, lost years, and the quiet strength that can be found in imperfection. Raw, reflective, and deeply emotional, the collection is a mirror for anyone who thinks too much, feels too deeply, and longs to belong to themselves. Inspired by literary greats, it celebrates the unfinished, the chaotic, and the beautiful complexity of the human spirit, reminding us that to be alive is to keep unfolding.
