Like Constellations

Like Constellations is Aileen Peterson’s debut poetry publication, a poetic treatise on the experiences of a Queer Polyamorous woman navigating identity, lust, infatuation, love, and heartbreak. Written over the course of the last decade these poems speak to the soul-consuming heartache of a first unrequited Sapphic love affair, the polyamorous and bisexual experience, of long-term couplings ending and new ones beginning, of the Queer religious struggle, ecosensuality, and an underlying thread of love for all of Creation and the divine erotic ecstasy that moves through us from seemingly some higher power greater than ourselves.
