Muster Points is a frank discussion of desire, nostalgia, mental illness, and health from a professor with one foot kicking the ivory tower. These poems bring us on a trans boy’s trips through the shard-sharp ruins of heterosexual marriages, into weird rural masculinities and their fraught survival, into regret and recovery, durability and desire.

This book takes readers to the core of Crawford’s sexual politic, through his front door and to the back of his mind. It arouses and provokes with visceral language and unequivocal vulnerability Muster Points invites readers to congregate in the spaces where Crawford gathers strength. Join him there!
