Let it go on: South poetry, fall/winter 2015

Brandon Shimoda

When someone

breaks down

Everyone leans into

someone breaking

down

And touches

that one

It can go on

– Brandon Shimoda ‘The Desert’ (The Song Cave: New York, 2018), p. 129.

Bhanu Kapil

What did Ban do that outweighed art? What kind of art did she produce?

Returning to the U.S., I lay down in the mud, removing my clothes and exposing my body with its waist and hips and suitcase of limbs.

– Bhanu Kapil ‘Ban en Banlieue’ (Nightboat Books: New York, 2015), p. 35
