Abstract
This thesis, Tour of my Bedside Cabinet, is a collection of poems about the speaker’s relationship with religion, queer identities, and sex/BDSM. The collection is split into sections, each of which begin with a retelling or reimagining of the creation story found in the book of Genesis. These retellings aim to illustrate the inconsistencies in the conception of the Christian god as all knowing, all powerful, and loving. Other poems in the collection are more personal, discussing the speaker’s experiences with Catholicism, as well as discoveries of bisexual and nonbinary identities, and sexual exploration. The collection begins with early realizations of these aspects of identity, moves through periods of uncertainty, and ends with a speaker more sure of who they are and what they want.
