Ayanna J (@simply_ayanna2.0), simply Ayanna she/they is a Black, queer, activist environmentalist and poet who is committed to being love and showing love. Proudly a lesbian and their work highlights their intersectional experiences as a black lesbian, they believe their gift back to the earth is their art, she writes and listens as both witness and kin to the earth and invites others to as well.
Aaron Gadbury (@crushedfruit) is a Philadelphia-based poet, performer, and co-producer of House Poet, a spoken word dance party. Originally from South Carolina, Aaron studied English at the University of South Carolina, wrote for The Daily Gamecock, and took the scenic route to Philadelphia by way of Beijing, New York City, and several romantic misadventures.
Aaron’s poetry is funny until it catches itself telling on itself. His work uses linguistic play, layered metaphor, and emotional misdirection to explore desire, shame, human history, family, politics, scientific inquiry, and the humiliating human wish to be witnessed correctly. His poems move between confession and critique, often asking whether vulnerability is intimacy, performance, self-defense, or all three.
His poetry has appeared in Wingless Dreamer Lit, Moonstone Press, and Pennsylvania Bards: A Southeast Poetry Review. He currently lives in Philadelphia, where he writes along the charged border between divulgence and performance, making shame laugh first and tell the truth second.
