Conversations with elders in their family inspired Goldenthem while they were writing “A Dead Name That Learned How to Live.” “It was such a beautiful thing that we sometimes take for granted, having a week with an elder and talking about stories.”
that they plan on moving away from Boston by 2023, saying, “This book feels like the perfect way to close this chapter that has given so much to me.”
It is impossible to read Golden’s poetry without seeing the influence of the essential people and places from their upbringing. Their parents attended the same elementary, middle and high schools together in the small town of Pocomoke City, Maryland, a place where most residents spend their entire lives, like Golden’s grandmother, whom they call “Grannie.” Golden’s dad joined the Air Force and the family settled in the suburban military town of Hampton, Virginia.
"I think of my photography as a poem I haven’t written yet. Poetry is a document of something that does not have an image, but it’s an image I’ve captured in my head."Golden’s work also harkens back to their lineage of artistry, with their Grannie as a poet and their Pop Pop as a photographer. They say their Grannie has always had a way with words, calling her their “little Maya Angelou.
A magnificent example of what Golden is able to accomplish on the page is their series of visual poems “[X][Y],” “Twin,” and “[X][X],” constructed to look like chromosomes. These poems speak to a time in Golden’s life when homophobia and transphobia divided their family, but Golden shares that they’re able to publish this poetry now because they were all able to work past that hurt, and now there’s nothing but love between them.
