Shay Rose
Shay Rose is a talented poet who draws inspiration from her own experiences as a PhD student in biochemistry in Galway, Ireland. She uses poetry as a form of escape and self-care in her daily life, and her scientific background shines through in her writing, with science poetry making up a significant portion of her work. Shay is also involved in Consilience, an online poetry journal that publishes peer-reviewed science poetry, further emphasizing her unique perspective and voice.
This collection of poetry centers around a single narrator, who reflects on (her) life and yearns for more. This is a story about the emotional swings experienced when she realizes that in order to pursue everything she wants to in her life, change needs to occur.
