The Chaos of Longing is a brutally honest exploration of desire--physical, emotional, and spiritual. This revised and expanded edition contains over 50 pages of all-new material.
Organized in four sections - Inception, Longing, Chaos, and Epiphany - K.Y. Robinson's debut poetry collection explores what it is to want in spite of trauma, shame, injustice, and mental illness. It is one survivor's powerful testimony, and a love letter "to those who lie awake burning."

“there’s a universe swirling inside you. you have to learn to be your own earth, wind, fire and water. you are a natural phenomenon— not a natural disaster.” I didn't hate this. I didn't love it, either. But I liked it, which is more than I can say for most of the other poetry books I reviewed. The one I quoted really stood out to me. The poems were quite sensual, but not uncomfortably so.
