A review by maliajackson
Lilith, but dark by Nichole Perkins

4.0

I adore Nichole on the Thirst Aid Kit podcast so I had to check out her poetry. If you listen to her podcast she's a very sensory/sensual kind of person, and I think her poetry is best when she leans into that.

One of the poems really stopped me in my tracks at the last line, which is rare and welcome.

I also completely love that she wrote a poem about the ABOMINABLE xojane article about black women and yoga (https://www.xojane.com/it-happened-to-me/it-happened-to-me-there-are-no-black-people-in-my-yoga-classes-and-im-uncomfortable-with-it) Bless that whole mess.
