Haiku Speedbuild #2

This week we’re at the just announced LEA11 (Linden Endowment for the Arts) project Alice in Cornelland. Haiku Speedbuild is lucky to be the first event at this new education / exploration region searching for a “virtual haptic.” Our March poems are from Beth Griffenhagen’s book Haiku for the Single Girl, and this week they’re read for us by 16-year-old slam poet & photographer Hanna Lee Reehl!

DJ Haraway & Gina Broono collaborated (and dance a lot while they worked) on:

One night my mom asked,
“You do still like boys,” (pause) “right?”
Yes, Mom. Sadly, yes.

Ami Tamura was inspired by:

I’m apathetic
About my chipped nail polish
Among other things.

Fafner Hofmann chose:

I hope that men will
Forgive me for not being
Zooey Deschanel.
