Both radically tender and desperate for change, Water I Won’t Touch is a life raft and a self-portrait, concerned with the vitality of trans people living in a dangerous and inhospitable landscape. Through the brambles of the Pennsylvania forest to a stretch of the Jersey Shore, in quiet moments and violent memories, Kayleb Rae Candrilli touches the broken earth and examines the whole in its parts. Written during the body’s healing from a double mastectomy—in the wake of addiction and family dysfunction—these ambitious poems put new form to what’s been lost and gained. Candrilli ultimately imagines a joyful, queer future: a garden to harvest, lasting love, the insistent flamboyance of citrus.

Aedon I'm not sure what's more shocking… being attacked and dragged to the woods, or gaining consciousness just as my mate shows up to rescue me. He insists on calling 911, but I manage to convince him to take me to the river. The look on his face as he watches me heal makes it obvious he's human and has no idea paranormals exist. I decide it's best to disappear, that is, until the ache in my chest becomes too much to bear. Is there a chance he might accept me and my world? It might not matter with the hunters ramping up their efforts to wipe us all out… Nate It's been two months since losing my partner on the police force and I'm finally back to work, ready to put my all into the job once again. When I find a woman who'd rather be thrown in the river than take an ambulance ride, I have to admit, I'm confused. Not, however, as confused as I am while I watch her injuries heal right in front of me. I've spent my entire twenty-nine years on this earth positive that there were humans and… and, that's it. Monsters and creatures are things made up for entertainment. They aren't real. Somehow, I convince myself that's still the case after she kisses my cheek and disappears into the water. My happy little reality bubble bursts when she shows up again at my door saying words like mate, and water nymph, and magic, and hunters. Everything I thought I knew gets blown to shit. I can't decide if I'm scared or pissed off. It's probably a combination of both. But more than those, the urge to protect this woman, to make her mine, engulfs me and I'll do anything to make sure that this new reality is the one I get to keep.
