    Clinnesha D. Sibley

    Yay!  The 60th episode.  How surreal.  I introduce to you Clinnesha D. Sibley, a writer & playwright with many publications and theatrical productions under her belt.  Hear us discuss her process, her advice to writers, & what creative projects she's working on now.  http://yourartsygirlpodcast.com http://thewriteaddiction.com A Love Letter to Ntozake You played with Barbies and watched as little boys gawked at Cindy Crawford in a Pepsi commercial. Your teacher suggested The Babysitters Club, “Kristy’s Great Idea” for your book project because it was heartwarming, not um…controversial… like The Bluest Eye. You watched The Cosby Show and knew you wanted to be that kind of black. You were eating grandma’s field peas and okra when you got your period. Mama was workin. Stayed workin. Your body changed immediately and grandma gave you a girdle. Same kind of girdle she gave your mama. You stayed lookin in the mirror hoping your ass would catch up to your chest and hips. It never did, not on its own. Sophomore year, he let you wear his letterman. It was warm and smelled like November. He never let anyone but you wear his letterman. He told you he loved you. You didn’t know a man could ever do that. He would take back the number 7 when y’all hated one another. Back and forth, the jacket began to smell less like autumn and more like alcohol and meat. /// You were in the McDonald’s bathroom when you got one line and a faint. You cried into your chicken nuggets. You told your best friend and her mama who’s cool. Then, cool mama told you ’bout Mrs. Poole… He said he would come, too. He lied. But he brought you somethin to eat afterwards. /// You left home after graduation. Your mama had to work graduation day, and the day you moved away. Grandma put a rolled up one hundred dollar bill in your hand for gas money and groceries. You got a job on campus. He needed money and you would take care…he hated that you could do that. You hated going home, and seeing him reminded you of how much you hated yourself. So, you changed your look. You found a college best friend who got you into places you were too young to be in. She’s better than your old best friend who’s been actin real funny. You hate her cuz you hate you. And she hate you cause of that thing with him. You say she pulls you down every time you get elevated. But you high more than you elevated. (High, drunk people don’t keep their scholarships.) Your school daze become filled with nights you don’t remember. And now, you goin back home. At least you tried. One day, you’re gonna finish. /// Friend was like, I told you. You had white liquor in you that night, and you fought her. You looked at yourself in the McDonald’s bathroom mirror and didn’t like the scratches, or your nose, your eyes, what the perm did to your hair, your dark skin, or the fact that you flunked out of college. Maybe your mama waz right when she called you a dumb ho; that was before she got in bed with her best friend’s man. You hate everything about yourself, and your mama’s probably right about you bein a dumb ho, so… You sleep with him again. He tightens his sweaty palm around your heart. You remember the baby. This time, you won’t need Mrs. Poole. /// Two healthy babies later, you’ve changed your look again. People wonder what’s different. They don’t wonder what your new hurt is. They just know you’ve got babies by him, and so does your best friend. But you’re the main one cuz he looks at you just like the boys looked at Cindy Crawford. You haven’t seen him since y’all got into it at his mama’s house. You’ve been texting her cause she helps you understand him more…she cares about you more than your own mama…more than your best friend, who loves him, too. You finally talk to your mama about him, and she hugs you. Apologizes and says things can only get worst. /// H

    Angela M. Brommel

We also talk about her past & current projects supporting the art & literary community as an art curator & Editor-in-Chief at the Citron Review. http://yourartsygirlpodcast.com http://tolsunbooks.com/shop/mojave-in-july-pre-order Mojave in July by Angela M. Brommel You can’t explain to friends from home how the desert makes it better, but you try: Imagine a heat so dry that it presses down into the earth, releasing its scent so that it takes on the comforting smell of clay pots in your grandmother’s kitchen when you were a child, or your hideout under the evergreens where you used to sit for hours smelling only the dirt, the sap, the pine. Imagine a smell that reminds you of the kitchen on holidays: sage, rosemary, and something you chase that is reminiscent of honey, but feels like love. Some people still fight it. They call the heat oppressive, they call it unrelenting. They have not learned how to live within it. You must learn to smell the water beneath the surface. You must learn to let the heat pass through you, warming your bones, your ligaments, and all the pieces that you call you. Let the heat draw out everything unneeded. Let it put you to bed midday. Let it make you new. --- Images/Angela M. Brommel Book cover image art/Su Limbert --- BIO: Angela M. Brommel is a Nevada writer with Iowa roots. In 2018, her chapbook, Plutonium & Platinum Blonde, was published by Serving House Books.

    Susana H. Case

    Check out Susana H. Case!  She is a NYC poet & a sociology professor at New York Institute of Technology.  Listen to us discuss how her academic work and poetics intersects & where she gets her ideas! http://yourartsygirlpodcast.com/episodes http://susanahcase.com Susana reads from her book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIyObZ_PToo http://broadstonebooks.com/Susana_H_Case.html The poems in this collection are inspired by the ways in which gender (and sometimes other divisions) creates opportunities for both victimization and survival. A theme woven throughout is the tension between being objectified and being human. There are three sections. The first section is organized around the idea of the stereotype of the living doll, and rebellion against that concept. The middle section, an ekphrastic section, is inspired by the life and the nutshell studies, crime model constructions, of Frances Glessner Lee, "mother of modern forensics," and includes some black and white images that are in the public domain. The third section, which includes the title poem, focuses more fully on the negative effects of objectified existences. Bio: Susana H. Case is the author of seven books of poetry. Drugstore Blue, from Five Oaks Press, won an Independent Publisher Book Award (IPPY). She is also the author of five chapbooks, two of which won poetry prizes. Her most recent chapbook is Body Falling, Sunday Morning from Milk and Cake Press. One of her collections, The Scottish Café, from Slapering Hol Press, was re-released in a dual-language English-Polish version, Kawiarnia Szkocka by Opole University Press in Poland. Her poems appear widely in magazines and anthologies. Recent poems can be found in: Calyx, The Cortland Review, Fourteen Hills, Portland Review, Potomac Review,Rattle, and RHINO, among others. Dr. Case is a Professor and Program Coordinator at the New York Institute of Technology in New York City.

We will share the same chorus of pain, the secret song that unites us all, a universal refrain that asks us to bless this world for its suffering for it’s the only thing that builds the bridge of empathy. Selected by Muddy River Poetry Review, Spring 2020 ---------------------------------- Shell Holding the shell of the man he used to be to my ear, his tidal voice crashed ashore, calling me to watch a nest of turtles break free from their sandy womb, frantic to find their ocean mother; a race from first breath to moonlit waves. I will remember you this way, I promised.
