NOTES
Through poems that move between the two languages, McIlwraith explores the beauty of the intersection between n̊hiyaẘwin, the Plains Cree language, and English, ḱayś̋mowin. Written to honour her father's facility in n̊hiyaẘwin and her mother's beauty and generosity as an inheritor of Cree, Ojibwe, Scottish, and English, kiyḿ articulates a powerful yearning for family, history, peace, and love
