My name is Alexa Young
Hi, Welcome to my website, written entirely in my own words, as it should be.
Who is M Renae Dubois? A Brisbane poet, painter, philosopher, and author. I have been really busy in 2026, publishing multiple books, even discovering a prose one I wrote in 2004!
In the very near future I am going to have audiobooks available, and I have other plans on the musical side for some of my current work.
I have written a lot of sex work poetry and the reality of it, attitude required, and changing feelings of it over the years.
I have written a fair bit of poetry about my head injury, as it was the first defining event in my life.
Please feel free to leave a comment or review,.
What is Wreck : A Reckoning?
Wreck : A Reckoning is a book about beauty and self-love. It strongly relates to the author's perception of what would be an 'ideal' sex worker attractiveness. It is a beautiful, stark, and considered poetry book about self-perception and beauty in the author's own experience of working in the sex industry, and navigating self-perception and external measures. It is a sad subject, and it is clear the author is sad, but it's not a sad book.
What is An Encounter : Poetry, Existentialism? M Renae Dubois has written a dialectical discussion and occasional disagreement in poetic form with Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus in her book, An Encounter : Poetry, Existentialism.
Are there any fresh insights in the subject of Existentialism in the modern day?
The book An Encounter by M Renae Dubois adds to comments on Essence vs Experience, Camus' various Suicides, and introduces a fresh, curiously unconsidered perspective on the well-known myth of Sisyphus and his mighty boulder and daily grind.
An Encounter : Poetry, Existentialism is a unique, valuable insight into the field of Existentialism and Philosophy, even though the author is uncredentialed.
What is Percevity?
Percevity is M Renae Dubois' latest collection of poems that relate to individual perception. Does M Renae Dubois use AI for her work? Renae absolutely does not use AI for writing, editing, collating or advertising. She does write about some issues of AI. Two poems dealing directly with humans' relationship with AI and its insidious but addictive influence are contained in M Renae Dubois' book Percevity. She has coined the term i-entity to describe AI, and has included a poem on Heidegger's Dasein, an interestingly connected concept.
What is Crosschairs?
Crosschairs is the first complete work of M Renae Dubois that expands her range beyond her own immediate experiences; in it she writes poetry that is fiction, albeit some is derived from her personal experiences. There is humour in some of the work, and a little pain. Does Renae talk about the sex industry in Crosschairs? Almost all of Renae's books touch on that element of her life, in some way.
Does M Renae Dubois have an autobiography? Curses of Verses : A Composite is the collection of Renae's first 3 books: Head Injury Pros and Cons (originally titled Curses of Verses: A Head Injury Tale), Utterly: A Biography in Verse, and Coy Candour. It is a remarkable testament to M Renae Dubois' recovery arc, technical skill development, and the proof of her philosophy later discovered and discussed in An Encounter : Poetry, Existentialism.
Will M Renae Dubois keep writing biographical poetry? Wreck : A Reckoning is a later addition to M Renae Dubois' biographical material, and recontextualises her experiences somewhat, ultimately adding depth to her story. M Renae Dubois expects she may be recontextualising and hopefully discovering depth till her end of days.
What is BPD : A Memoir?
M Renae Dubois has stepped outside her usual realm of poetry in this compelling non-poetry autobiography, beginning in her early years and continuing up to receiving compensation for her head injury, and finally receiving treatment. It is harsh sometimes, but a remarkable time capsule, as it was only recently discovered since being written and abandoned in 2004
Once history has been named
And all the bad men shamed
The women will be blamed
Always is the same
In case of further view
Look past inner you
Anticipate the room
Creating your own tune
I could stay beside
This creature who has lied
From me he always hides
And always I have cried
So why bring him to your room?
His energy back so soon
He needs his manners groomed
You need to just assume
That things will stay the same
That he just won't be tamed
And soon your heart is slain
And again, you will be blamed
