"In savings time, Roya Marsh sharpens her words like a razor, cutting through the layers of identity, trauma, and defiance with a voice that is as relentless as it is tender. These poems are not just read but felt, each one a visceral reminder of the ongoing struggle to exist fully in a world that too often attempts to erase you. Marsh's poetry collection is a fierce, unapologetic and bluesy anthem for anyone who’s ever been told they’re too much or not enough."
—Frederick Joseph, National Bestselling Author of We Alive, Beloved
