A spoken word piece accompanied with performance art about taking an Uber home in the early hours of the morning after completing a night of sex work. It encapsulates the conflict of feeling unsafe around men who are strangers yet being confined to the space shared with them.

AJ was the champion of the 2020 Toronto Poetry Slam and the 2019 Feminine Empowerment Movement Slam. They are an award-winning journalist and multidisciplinary artist.
