What if the life you are living was never truly yours to begin with?
We were born without prejudice; Only humans we saw. We are taught otherwise.
Life on a Leash is not just a poetry collection.
It is about being shaped before you even know who you are. About a system that defines your worth before you are even born. About being told you are free, while something tightens around your neck.
With a voice that doesn't shy away from speaking the truth our world desperately wants to hide, this collection explores identity, control, and the silent forces that shape us.
It is about growing up in a world that was never made for you. And what it means to finally question it... To break free from it.
If you have ever been told you care too much, felt out of place, unseen, or powerless in this system, this book is for you.
J. Artemelis is an Austrian poet and writer. Her work explores injustice, feminism, identity, queerness, and the quiet ways society shapes who we become, often at the expense of our mental health. Life on a Leash is her debut poetry collection.
