From Episode 70 with @danikastegeman.bsky.social Listen here: share.transistor.fm/s/997fb4a3

ON RELENTLESSNESS:

"I find the act of writing or creating to be a part of that relentlessness—| wanted the writing to be relentless too, to refuse to stop, to refuse to be small, and to refuse to not contain everything that it could possibly contain, because we're complex people and the art is complex as well."

If I’m haunted, then I’m loved. Danika Stegeman LeMay

If I'm
haunted, then I'm loved. Radio on. Bulb flickering. A washcloth folded square. Dark matter
doesn't emit or interact with light. It surrounds us even if we can't
see it.

Danika Stegeman LeMay, from Ablation asterismbooks.com/product/abla...

I set fires, relentless.
I cradle a tequila bottle and ghostride hotel elevators floor to floor, relentless.
I shatter glass, relentless.
I piece shards, relentless.
I cull the fold, relentless.
I live in an open field, relentless.
I'll repopulate your wasteland with native flora and fauna, relentless.
I strip gristle and fat from still-warm flesh, relentless.
I knew if I wanted anything good in my life l'a have to make it myself, my mom says, and I understand that she gave me what allowed me to survive her, relentless.
If the text must be corporeal, I must insist on its being vaginal, relentless.
I must insist on cunnilingus, relentless.
If we have to name the animals and other totems, I'll have to insist on gender neutral and/or feminine pronouns, relentless.

I offer a close reading of @danikastegeman.bsky.social's poem "Amanuensis" (published in Mercury Firs' recent issue). I'm especially interested in the relationship between poet and inscriber of poem. And the expressive potential Stegeman finds in that between-space. thekalliope.org/amanuensis-b...
