Cannibal
by Safiya Sinclair
I watched Sinclair perform at the Dodge Poetry Festival a few years ago, and I wanted to check out more of her work after seeing her live.
I loved the intersectionality of Sinclair's work, and how she tackled both race and gender in her poems. I'm not really familiar with Caribbean culture, so this was eye-opening in that aspect. Having read The Tempest last year, I also thought it was interesting how she incorporated Caliban as a theme and wove him through her works, since I wasn't expecting that going into the anthology.
I'm a big fan of Sinclair's flow and diction - her poetry drew me in. I'd love to pick up more of her works in the future.
