When the Light is Mine: Poetry for the People

When the Light Is Mine is Chaz Holesworth’s debut poetry collection, a piercing blend of social critique and intimate confession. These poems confront the machinery of capitalism, the weight of organized religion, and the toxic myths we’re sold about money, power, and worth. At the same time, they cut deeply into personal terrain: the spirals of depression, the false promises of antidepressants, the ache of unfulfilled dreams, and the immaculate discovery of real love in an age of carefully curated personas.
