Abstract

This thesis is a manuscript of poetry written during my time in Florida Atlantic University’s MFA in Creative Writing program. The included poems focus on my positive and negative experiences with travel and cultural identity. These themes communicate with each other to form a cohesive catalogue of poems of a variety of forms and styles. My emphasis in writing the poems including in this manuscript was to both share and learn more about how my struggles with displacement, exclusion, and loss have led to a greater awareness of my voice, heritage, and craft.
