Jack Dinovitz forever, forever A Poem by Jack Lindsay Dinovitz I wrote this poem titled “forever, forever” about falling in love on a train. How the body and soul of the person can be so inspiring you must write a poem to capture the moment you met them. When the main character falls in love with another man he slowly becomes enthralled by the many ideas and many life times he pictures between the two of them. I researched Greek mythology, time zones between Italy and France, different flowers and monuments in both countries and much more. This poem is dedicated to the LGBTQ+ community, my younger self, and the love that may be lost to us because historians were to scared to write about it.
Madeline FehlmanTo the girl I saw in my dreams last night This poem captures the magical quality of dreams. The speaker is longing to reunite with the illusive girl from her dreams and wonders about her existence.
Ava BlakeI’m Not Sorry I’m Sick // And The King Declares Zugzwng For this poetry reading I’m going to read “I’m Not Sorry I’m Sick :: I’m Sorry My Ma Saw Me”. This poem was inspired by the 7-foot tall concrete samurai statue my dad bought. I will also be reading “Starting Our 23rd Life Together” which was created from a prompt to go to a location you’ve never been before and write a poem. I went to a Catholic Church because I was raised Catholic and always wondered if I would ever go back to church.
