SAINT DOG follows a trio of folk saints who fall from favour after the Catholic Church declares them heresy. Through the saints’ stories, which span continents and centuries, the poems grapple with transness, queer parenting & the violence of empire. The saints long for revolution and for autonomy. SAINT DOG was first written at Lakkos Artists Residency in Crete, October 2023.
