Abstract

Using the COVID-19 pandemic as a point of disruption that forced me to interrogate the practices of both mothering and being an academic, this chapter turns to poetry as a form of artful inquiry into my experiences with/as both. As a partner, a mother of two children, and a tenured associate professor, the pandemic brought to light the challenges of work/life when there was no clear distinction between ‘work’ and ‘life.’ Writing this collection of poems cultivated a vulnerable space for me to work through the grief I experienced as I stumbled through the collisions of mothering/academia; it also provided the opportunity to pause and appreciate the unexpected gifts that burst forth. The photos within were taken during the pandemic as I documented my/my family’s experiences.
