Vulture: A book of poems about pain, heartache, and learning to be myself

By David Haneline

Everyone has a closet to come out of. For some it may be sexuality or gender identity. For author David Haneline, it was religion. Raised as a Christian fundamentalist, home-schooled abortion protester, David always struggled with his religion, and its application. The road towards self-realization was long and fraught with difficulty, struggle, pain, and loss. This book tells that story, and reveals for the first time the poetry that was written during those years of struggle and self-discovery, poetry that was hidden for fear of being misunderstood. So often we hide the things about us that we think are not beautiful or acceptable. This book reveals it all and encourages the reader to take the same steps towards authenticity. Sometimes the greatest battle is the struggle to be ourselves without shame.
