Christy Sampson-Kelly

Christy Sampson-Kelly exposes a journey through the lived experience of being neither this nor that. Drinking in the world around her with a palate unrestricted by ancestry, her open and often privileged view as a perceived insider is vibrantly brought into focus. Whether echoing tenderness, perplexity or resiliency each poem is stitched to her richly interwoven and often blended identities. Taking the reader by the hand, she offers a glimpse into one most human way of being.
