รายละเอียด : Unseen Veins ( E )

     In Unseen Veins, the complexities of how we label ourselves and where we belong are laid bare, from the place where we are born, to our parents' heritage, to our name's origin, we are asked to 'choose a side'. This poet hopes for a world where their children can choose their own identity.
