Bad At Existing

“Madisen’s poetry is thoughtful and makes one feel seen and heard. I can’t wait for readers to dive in.” —Rupi Kaur, #1 New York Times bestselling author

In her fourth book, Madisen Kuhn explores the complexities of identity, self-expression, longing, and hope—capturing the duality of wanting to be seen by the world while also wanting to hide from it. With 160 poems, Bad At Existing embraces the messiness of being human and rejects the idea that we must be perfect to be seen. Madisen invites you to leave your expectations and self-judgment at the door and allow yourself to simply exist—even if that sometimes means being bad at it.
