She is Matriarch
Within these pages Shuína Skó presents five beautifully affirming poems intended to nurture the Indigenous feminine Spirit. Through poetry, Shuína empowers women (all female identifying persons), gives voice to the Indigenous experience, and shines a light on the beauty that exists within tribal culture. This is a book sure to provide the nourishment a woman's Spirit needs.
Heart Poems for the Hopeless Romantic
This is a shame-free, inclusive, and sex-positive book containing 28 short stories inspired by queer love, lust, and loss. A writing prompt follows each of the 28 poems and invites the reader to become more intimately engaged. Indigenous guest poet, Jerilyn Alderman-Hansson, provides the 29th bonus poem.
Big Love - mo stinta
This book holds 13 of Shuína’s poems that take the reader on a journey of Indigenous resilience in the face of trauma and oppression. Some of the poems highlight how all life, including plants and animals, are interconnected. Many of the poems speak to a deep appreciation for Mother Earth and the importance of restoring our relationship with nature.
Two-Spirit Journeying
16 short stories formulated into poetry that bring us right alongside Shuína during her Two-Spirit journey. This book of poetry provides insight to some of the love, lust, and brokenness felt by Shuína. Shuína’s poetry is purposed to ignite passion for breaking false stereotypes of Indigenous people and start a conversation about how to move forward in a good way with the overall goal of healing past hurts while strengthening our community as a whole. Shuína hopes to give voice to and empower marginalized peoples, tribal communities, and 2SLGBTQIA+ identifying individuals.
Warrior Roses
Ten poems about historical trauma, present pains, and Indigenous resiliency. Shuína draws on her personal experience as an Indigenous person and a member of her tribe, The Klamath Tribes. Following each poem, Shuína adds thoughtfully crafted insights about certain details of the poem.
