Abstract
This thesis consists of original poems as well as translations of contemporary Ukrainian poet Anastasiia Afanas’eva. My poems are written to expose issues often left unnoticed in the realities of everyday life. The deeper themes embedded in my work include issues of love/power, cultural identity, sexuality, labeling/reality, and family. Most of my poems are written in an unadorned style relying on a turn of thought or starkness of representation for poetic effect. Though all of the poems are vers libre, their style varies significantly throughout, reflecting my desire to experiment with different ways of writing. All of the work explores norms in society in an attempt to figure out how we as people communicate and come to understand ourselves while experiencing constant pressure on the multiplicity of our existences.
