In My Mind, On My Time: A Poetic Autobiography

In In My Mind, On My Time, poet and advocate Ariel A. Phoenix makes her powerful literary debut-an unapologetic blend of poetry, memoir, and short stories.

After years of keeping her words close, Phoenix opens the door to her world with pieces like "The Forest Within Me" and "Blickity Blickity Black," celebrating family, identity, and Black womanhood. Vulnerable, vivid, and full of soul, this collection honors every season of life that shaped her-and invites you to do the same.
