SPOKEN WORD

Love Is Not Love

Spoken Word by Marissa Glover​

Picture

Marissa Glover lives in Florida, where she was born and raised, but she isn't to blame for election results. When she isn't teaching or writing, Marissa shares her thoughts more than necessary, which she considers a form of charitable giving. If it counted as a tax deduction, she'd be rich. Her work has appeared or is forthcoming in various print, online, and audio journals including The Opiate, Rat’s Ass Review, Solstice Sounds, and Strange Poetry.

henry 7. reneau, jr. writes words in conflagration to awaken the world ablaze, free verse that breaks a rule every day, illuminated by his affinity for disobedience: a phoenix-flux of red & gold immolation that blazes from his heart, like a chambered bullet exploded through change is gonna come to implement the fire next time. He is the author of the poetry collection, freedomland blues (Transcendent Zero Press) and the e-chapbook, physiography of the fittest (Kind of a Hurricane Press), now available from their respective publishers. Additionally, he has self-published a chapbook entitled 13hirteen Levels of Resistance, and his work has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize. ​

​About Last Night

Spoken Word by Dafni Ma 
Picture
Dafni Ma was born in Greece on a sunny Tuesday morning. She likes to refer to herself in third person and she is also a huge lover of metafiction. In fact, the two of them are in a peaceful relationship since 2008. 

After she decided that the Latin dance teacher was not what she wanted to be her profession, she gave up the ballrooms and studied in the Hellenic Cinema and Television School Stavrakos. For some time she also worked in an advertising company as a junior copywriter and as a freelance editor and translator for screenplays. 

She has enrolled in numerous online seminars for everything under the sun and participated in many writing contests from around the world, which some of them she won. The summer of 2016 she also took part in the Cambridge Summer Programme, in which she learned a lot about her favourite writer of all times, Shakespeare. 

Dafni, in general, writes and she writes a lot. From poetry to screenplays, from chick lit to sci-fi novels, she is interested in everything has to do with the written word. ​

Spoken Word by Rebecca Major
Picture
Rebecca Major currently resides in Las Vegas, Nevada. Her Spoken Word piece is based on a day she felt the most vulnerable she has ever felt in her life. The tragic truth of herself and others that can relate to her is too many. It took her a long time to open up about this and to also understand that things in this case are valid. She hopes by opening up it can encourage anyone to understand the same.
