William Rothko

William Rothko is a poet based in Lancashire, UK, currently pursuing Creative Writing to PhD level. His work explores inheritance, ritual, and queer embodiment through a lens shaped by Jewish tradition and contemporary poetics. A regular contributor and Community Weaver with Ritualwell, he engages deeply with Jewish, queer, and LGBT themes. His writing balances formal precision with spiritual inquiry, seeking moments where devotion and doubt can coexist in language.
