Reading of Rape Kits at the LIC Arts Open 13 - Poetry Festival May 2026

I read my poem, Rape Kits, at the LIC Arts Open 13 - Poetry Festival on May 17, 2026.

The Poetry Festival was curated by Queens Poet Laureate, 2015-2019, Academy of American Poets Fellow, Maria Lisella and held at The Local NY located in Long Island City (Queens, baby).

So many other poets read at the festival that my head is still a buzz!

Thank you LIC Arts Open & Maria Lisella for having me.

Rape Kits was originally published in Timeless Tales Magazine Pandora’s Box in 2019.
