Behind the Poems
Deep dives into the inspirations and stories behind selected pieces.
Step into a sacred garden where resistance blooms, roots run deep, and the divine feminine rises again. Queen of My Garden by Kira Young is more than a poetry collection—it’s a sanctuary for the soul and a rallying cry for justice, truth, and love.
We value truth-telling, sacred connection, and the courage to stand on the margins. Every poem is an act of love, justice, and remembrance—rooted in the belief that words can heal and transform.
Our vision is a world where Indigenous wisdom and the divine feminine are honored, where land and people thrive in balance, and where poetry becomes both sanctuary and call-to-action.
Through Queen of My Garden, we aim to inspire, comfort, and awaken. By blending the personal with the political, the mystical with the real, our mission is to create a space where all voices—especially the uninvited and unbroken—are celebrated.
Queen of My Garden by Kira Young Step into a sacred garden where resistance blooms, roots run deep, and the divine feminine is reborn. Queen of My Garden is a bold and tender poetry collection from Kira Young, the “Neurodivergent Insurgent,” whose voice rises at the intersection of Indigenous wisdom, mystical insight, and lived resistance. These poems do not whisper—they declare. From the vibrancy of hummingbirds and mountain creeks to the harsh realities of colonial trauma, climate grief, and societal exclusion, Young masterfully blends the cosmological with the personal, the political with the prayerful. For those who walk on the margins, for the uninvited and unbroken, this book is both sanctuary and call-to-action. Whether she’s invoking the moon lodge, challenging empire, or honoring the missing and murdered, Kira’s poetry asks us to imagine—and remember—a better world.
