Synopsis

Dive into the uncomfortable and uncertain world of Branden's debut poetry collection, a winding journey through layers of emotions and experiences. In this carefully crafted anthology, Branden eloquently weaves together the complexities of identity, love, pain, and resilience. As a black, queer, Christian minister and social worker, his unique perspective sheds light on the beauty and challenges that come with living authentically, as a plurality, courageously embracing the spectrum of human emotional and psychological experience.

In "Chrysalis" you will receive an invitation and be inspired to explore the rolling landscapes of the heart and mind, where each verse resonates with authenticity and vulnerability. Humility, embarrassment, and weakness are on earnest display as Branden reveals, in first person, some of the most intimate details of his life in hopes that the reader will discover untapped potential within himself to grow through excavation of the scariest and deepest parts of oneself.
