Ramblings of the Lost & Found

63 poems written by me a transgender guy.

Ramblings of the Lost and Found is the second full-length poetry collection by Axton N. O. Mitchell, a transgender poet exploring the raw intersections of identity, grief, love, survival, and memory.

This 63-poem collection offers vulnerable glimpses into the messy and beautiful in-betweens — written from the perspective of a trans man navigating relationships, trauma, mental health, and queer joy.

Expect poems that feel like notes from a storm and whispers from healing places. Some will break your heart. Some will rebuild it.

Content Warning: Includes themes of grief, death of a parent, trauma, mental illness, and identity-based experiences.

For readers who’ve ever felt both lost and found — sometimes at once.
