BECOMING Mickey Turner Awarded Literary Submission: First Place

“It’s difficult for me to describe this poem. It exists in pieces that fade into each other unexpectedly. It’s about religion, about spirituality, about self-image, about gender transition. It’s about trying to be authentically myself without knowing, yet, what that will look like in the end. It’s about self-love and the discomforting wholeness of being.”
