O SAY CAN YOU SEE: Deadline Extended to August 20!

Let me know (beccavista[at]yahoo[dot]com) if you're interested in contributing! All entries that follow the guidelines will be included on Delirious Hem!

===========================================

O SAY CAN YOU SEE:
Nonverbal Reviews and Adaptations of Women's Poetry

===========================================

New Deadline: August 20

What book, chapbook, performance, or poem by a woman poet published/presented in the last year or two has left you speechless? How might that speechlessness manifest itself visually, sonically, or through another nonverbal medium?

Please create a response to this piece; your response can act like a review, adaptation, homage, investigation, companion piece, Frankenstein, child, or any mash-up of the aforementioned. In August, all responses submitted will be featured as a forum on Delirious Hem.

Curated by K. Lorraine Graham and Becca Klaver.
