Excited and honored to have my poem “I Do Not Wait” published by Writers Resist in their current October 2020 Issue. This poem, with the epigraph “–for Walt Whitman” is in response to the Whitman poem entitled “A Woman Waits for Me.”
Writers Resist is a feminist literary collective born of the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election. Issues are published bi-weekly and include about a handful or so of poems, prose, and images/artwork–it’s easy to take in a complete issue in a single reading. They “are eager to see writings and images that can reasonably be described as expressions of resistance, whether poetry, fiction, narrative nonfiction, essay or image.” There are no fees to submit and they “are dedicated to challenging all things that diminish our nation’s quest for equality, freedom, justice and a healthy planet for all—while having a bit of fun.” For more information, see the link to their Submission Guidelines below.
