Just performed at the Young Poets Takeover! Had an absolute blast listening to so many brilliant poems by fellow poets!
I read my poem 'to my painter' published in The Crossroads Review.
Really appreciated all the kind responses, and wanted to showcase them a bit!

*Names blurred for privacy.*

Such a euphoric moment to see my poem 'Night Swim' in issue three, 'Gui-Shen: Spirits' of Yīn Literary!
Huge thank you to Yīn Literary!

Since October has officially passed by us, I made a short recap originally posted on my Instagram @velvetsolander!
It's been such an amazing month, and I am so grateful!

Immensely excited to share that my haiku is in Modern Haiku Issue 56.3 🎉. Endless gratitude to editor Paul Miller for accepting my haiku.

This experience did bring a question to mind; is shorter poetry harder to write than longer poetry?
would love to hear your opinions!

to my painter,
— by Sheza T,
published in The Crossroads Review

A body and soul moulded, varnished, and displayed to please others under obsessive domination.
an elegy on control, objectification and the fickle nature of being a ‘muse.’

thrilled to hear your take and any stories it sparks! 🌌🏮

Published in The Crossroads Review! Huge thank you to the editors for this amazing opportunity.

Full poem in Issue three of The Crossroads Review! Would love to hear your thoughts!
