SUMMARY:Three Poets on Hurricanes\, History & the Converse MFA
DESCRIPTION:When her Florida apartment is damaged by the ferocity of Hurricane Irma\, Denise Duhamel turns to Dante and terza rima\, reconstructing the form into the long poem “Terza Irma.” Throughout her new poetry collection\, Second Story: Poems\, she investigates our near-catastrophic ecological and political moment\, hyper aware of her own complicity\, resistance\, and agency. With fear of the water below and a burglar who enters through her second story window\, she bravely faces the story under the story\, the second story we often neglect to tell. In formal and nontraditional poems\, Ashley M. Jones calls for long-overdue reparations to the Black descendants of enslaved people in the United States. In Reparations Now!\, she takes on the worst of today – state-sanctioned violence\, pandemic-induced crises\, and white silence – all while uplifting Black joy. In In All These Hungers: Poems\, Rick Mulkey turns on his hungers\, turns Rimbaud into something American\, small town scrappy\, transparent and musky: these poems land on the tongue and in the brain and center on the stomach. Whisky\, beans\, peppered pork belly bacon\, lemonade\, unclean scrambled eggs\, very cold sweet tea\, onions\, beets\, tomatoes\, wine – these Rabelaisian poems have a nose for the ground that smells “like dusty clocks.” \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:Loaded Terms: Poets on Identity & Truth
DESCRIPTION:In Extremely Lightweight Guns: Poems\, Nikki Moustaki explores femininity in contexts that grapple with violence\, mental illness\, loss\, love\, and relationships. She probes these themes through various provocative narratives\, settings\, and forms\, from prose to diary-like entries. In her debut collection Tortillera: Poems\, Caridad Moro-Gronlier not only applies the homophobic Spanish-language term for lesbians to herself\, she owns it\, drapes it over her shoulders and heralds her truth through candid\, unflinching poems that address the queer experience of coming out while Cuban. Moderated by Richard Blanco\, author of How to Love a Country. \nSponsored by
