She Speaks Poetry

A seasoned and sought-after orator, edyka chilomé puts to the page poems that claim space for healing herself and her communities. Pulling from modern and pre-columbian American language and culture, edyka explores "herstory" through personal and global politics, spirituality, and the origins of poetry itself. In the tradition of queer women of color writers, edyka chilomé's She Speaks | Poetry invites us to consider the complexity of our human condition and the need to tell our stories. For the first time in a print collection, "She Speaks For Herself."
