Religious Trauma in the Key of Poetry is a literary passage through the childhood and adolescence of a lesbian woman brought up in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It explores experiences and emotions that arise in relation to lack of autonomy while growing up in a culture that tells queer individuals that they were created incorrectly.

The author draws inspiration from real-life moments such as her baptism, childhood daydreams, awkward church dances, and her first time trying coffee in order to fully process and contemplate her upbringing. Religious Trauma in the Key of Poetry is a poignant take on what it means to reject what a culture demands you must be, and instead, become your own individual.
