Between Me and My Bones
-
Between Me and My Bones is a collection of poems devoted to the wild, magnificent, and messy journey that is the human experience. In her debut book of poetry, Kailey weaves together themes of love and loss, humanity and divinity, addiction and expansion.
-
Through welcoming us into her inner world, Kailey envisions her poems as invitations into our own perseverant hearts where we may begin to discover the boundlessness that comes from the breaking and the gold that is always present amongst the ache.

Poetry Book Release & Celebration!
-
Here is the first half of my poetry event to celebrate the release of my new book where I guide everyone through a meditation and share a series of poems from the book. Thank you for listening!
AT HER ALTAR
I will not lie nor
douse the self in light
when darkness draws near;
rather, I will cast my arms
as wide as the ocean
and let everything swim.
I will suffer beside the self
so as to know compassion
and the oneness of things.
I will bow to the fractured parts,
giving praise to she who
brings forth the night.
Intimately now,
almost entwined,
though still a breath apart,
I am breaking and becoming
at her altar.
