I had the pleasure of talking with David Ades for the WestWords Poet’s Corner podcast.
We chatted on the theme of “Unruly poems (ones that defy convention through structure, language, and themes)” and explored gender acceptance, discrimination, and identity, among many other things. A wonderful chat!
