Tianee Harris is a Brooklyn-born poet, writer, yoga teacher, and co-host of an astrological self-development podcast. Her work explores grief, womanhood, embodiment, and spiritual reckoning after loss. She currently resides in Nashville, Tennessee, where she balances motherhood, podcasting, teaching, and the ongoing labor of becoming. She believes that art is not only expression, but responsibility, a bridge between what was survived and what is still unfolding.
PRAISE:
“Exploring themes of identity, grief and resilience with fierce intellect and gritty hope, delivering a body asks: in a world that hands women shame and suffering, how do we hang on to our hearts? What does it mean to forgive when the body never forgets? How did we pick up all this pain, and how might we set it down?”
–Victoria Hutchins, author of Make Believe: Poems for Hoping Again
delivering a body is what happens when our grief starts talking back. Tianee Harris writes like a woman who has seen God in a wound and stuck around long enough to give her a name. Her poems move effortlessly through loss, rage, and resurrection with the kind of clarity that only comes from surviving. Reading this book felt like my own body remembering things I did not have the words to describe yet.”
–Lyn Patterson, author of The Postcards I Never Sent and Whisperings of the Wild and Wilting

I love a woman who doesn’t dilute her pain and experience for the safety and convenience of the world. From the very first poem, “The Body After” – a visceral, guttural piece – until the final page, you know you aren’t being shielded from anything. And instead of the terror we’re told honesty invites, the reader feels welcomed. You’re safe in these pages. You’re seen here. And together as women we transmute the pain of living and loss into poetry, art, a garden. The work lands at love, and I love this work.
