Assigned Disaster at BirthMarhoefer, Katherinna 28 June 2022 (has links)
Assigned Disaster at Birth is the scifi surrealist autofictitious diary and scrapbook of a queer space alien stuck in a humanoid body, a trans transhuman, written mostly in verse. The space alien speaker of these poems moves through multiple marginalized human identities ultimately remembering it isn't human at all. Through these poems, the speaker forms solidarities with nonhuman kin, reclaiming the memory lost to colonialism and civilization of what it means to be nonhuman and more-than-human. / Master of Fine Arts / Assigned Disaster at Birth is a poetry collection that takes the form of a queer and trans space alien's diary and scrapbook. This queer space alien is stuck in a humanoid body amidst humans who are violent towards the alien and the planet, on a planet that is a capitalist hellscape. As the alien survives physical violence, emotional abuse, alienation, it begins to remember it isn't human at all. In doing so, the alien opens itself up to connection with nonhuman life.
