november ninth: poems written when i was supposed to be working from home is a collection of poems composed in a single day in 2020. Though the institution was closed due to a hurricane, teachers were required to hold classes remotely and complete tasks, despite the possibility of power outages and evacuations. The poems explore how our need for human connection is undermined and confused by labor. We want to feel human when our work often requires us to be machines; we envy other animals whose lives, rustic and simple, don't require permission. november ninth is an irreverent, silly, and angsty act of rebellion for the workers of the world. This publication is brought to you by Dipity Press #2 in the community chapbook series.
