Works


Lewis won The Florida Review 's Editor’s Award in Poetry in 2016 and was named The Adroit Journal 's Gregory Djanikian Scholar in 2018.
In 2019, their debut collection Space Struck was published by Sarabande Books.
The Millions called it "One of the best debuts of the year," writing: "Poem by poem, Lewis builds a menagerie of mood and matter." The Rumpus wrote that "It pulses with light and shimmers with hope." The Carolina Quarterly wrote: "In a Lewis poem, paying attention reveals craziness and danger. . . Lewis’ poems show us what is so hard to look at, the truth we squirm to see. And they make us culpable in the process."
In an interview, The Adroit Journal noted that "Space Struck swerves toward the tercet in numerous instances" and described the poems as "sometimes directly interrogate the metaphysical, the spiritual realm." Stay Thirsty Magazine wrote: "Lewis takes up this idea of purgatory, and other religious ideals, in much of their work. The speaker of their poetry searches the space between religious reveries and the corporeal truths of reality."
Lewis' poetry has appeared in Poetry, American Poetry Review, Ploughshares, Gulf Coast, The Massachusetts Review, The Georgia Review, The Iowa Review, Poetry Northwest, and Ninth Letter, and anthologized in Best New Poets 2017.
