Nichelle taps into her experiences of growing up in the South as a queer Black woman to courageously confront the effects of a forced religion and the inherent dangers of living life in a female body. \u003ci\u003eGod Themselves\u003c\/i\u003e is divided into three equally moving sections: Everything, Everywhere, and Love. Nichelle braids her wisdom--as seen in the poem \"What to Do When There's Nothing You Can Do\"--and witty generational humor--seen in \"Sanctity: An Exposé\"--into every poem. If you've ever contemplated who, what, and where God is, find comfort in these words.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJae Nichelle is the author of the poetry chapbook \u003ci\u003eThe Porch (As Sanctuary)\u003c\/i\u003e; the inaugural poetry winner of the John Lewis Writing Award from the Georgia Writers Association, and one of few people from Lafayette, Louisiana who has never met the singer Cupid.
