More about TK
Takayla P. Carlton, poetically known as TK, discovered the transformative power of poetry as a means of navigating through the depths of mental health. Initially kept private as a form of personal survival, her poetry has evolved into an expression of emotions and gratitude.
Venturing into the realm of public sharing in 2023, TK realized that her words were not just for herself but meant to be shared with others. In her poetry, she seamlessly blends the sacred and the secular, often utilizing alliteration and vivid imagery to craft evocative verses.
Inspired by her experiences and the diverse communities she belongs to, TK’s work aims to provoke introspection and provide representation, particularly for marginalized voices within the women, queer, and black communities. Alongside her poetic pursuits, TK finds joy in Sunday morning church services, running, fishing, and acting. Holding a bachelor’s degree in Theatre, she continues to explore the intersection of art, identity, and self-expression through her poetry, hoping to fulfill its divine purpose within her readers.
